Did the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say: "Indeed, we dig into the faces of people whose hearts our hearts curse"? And who narrated this hadith?
The narration attributed to Abu al-Darda', "Indeed, we smile in the faces of some people, though our hearts curse them," is not authentically transmitted as a . However, Imam al-Bukhari created a chapter heading for it and cited the hadith of 'Aishah, may Allah be pleased with her, from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him: "Indeed, the worst people in rank before Allah are those whom people abandon out of fear of their indecency." This indicates the permissibility of mudaraah, which is showing humility to people and speaking gently. This differs from the forbidden mudahanah, which means approving of the actions of a wicked person without condemning them. As for mudaraah, it is being gentle with the ignorant and the wicked, while subtly condemning their actions if their wickedness is not openly displayed.
