إِنَّ أَقْرَبَ مَا يَكُونُ الْعَبْدُ إِلَى الْكُفْرِ أَنْ يُوَاخِيَ الرَّجُلُ الرَّجُلَ عَلَى الدِّينِ فَيُحْصِيَ عَلَيْهِ عَثَرَاتِهِ وَ زَلَّاتِهِ لِيُعَنِّفَهُ بِهَا يَوْماً مَا .


Translation

A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Khalid, from Ali Bin Al Hakam, from Abdullah Bin Bukeyr, from Zurara, (It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘The closest of what the servant can come to be to the disbelief is that he establishes brotherhood with the man upon the Religion, so he counts his slips (of his tongue) and his mistakes against him in order to rebuke him with it one day’.
