باب كراهة المدح في الوجه لمن خيف عليه مفسدة من إعجاب ونحوه، وجوازه لمن أمن ذلك في حقه Abu Musa Al-Ash'ari (May Allah be pleased with him) said: The Prophet (ﷺ) heard a person lauding another person or praising him too much. Thereupon he said, "You killed the man," or he said, "You ruined the man." [Al-Bukhari and Muslim]. وعن أبي موسى الأشعري رضي الله عنه قال: سمع رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم رجلا يُثني على رجل ويُطريه في المدحة، فقال: "أهلكتم، أو قطعتم ظهر الرجل" ((متفق عليه)). (23).
