حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ هَمَّامٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ فَأَثْنَى عَلَى عُثْمَانَ فِي وَجْهِهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَخَذَ الْمِقْدَادُ بْنُ الْأَسْوَدِ تُرَابًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَحَثَا فِي وَجْهِهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ إِذَا لَقِيتُمُ الْمَدَّاحِينَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَاحْثُوا فِي وُجُوهِهِمُ التُّرَابَ .

A man came and praised Uthman in his face, Al-Miqdad bin Al-Aswad took dust and threw it on his face, saying: the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم said: when you see those who are given to praising people, throw dust in their faces.
