Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:

Do you know what is backbiting? They (the Companions) said: Allah and His Messenger know best. Thereupon he (the Prophet ﷺ) said: Backbiting implies you talking about your brother in a manner which he does not like. It was said to him: What is your opinion about this that if I actually find (that failing) in my brother which I made a mention of? He said: If (that failing) is actually found (in him) what you assert, you in fact backbited him, and if that is not in him it is a slander.

[Sahih Muslim 2589]

Al-Fudayl ibn 'Iyād said, "Love is better than fear. Do you not see that if you have two slaves one of whom loves you and the other of whom fears you, that the one who loves you will be true to you whether you are present or absent because of his love of you. The one who fears you will perhaps be true to you when you are present because of his fear of you, but he will deceive you when you are absent and not be true to you."

Ibn al-Jawzi رحمه الله said:

"How would you feel after being resurrected from your grave when you see some people rescued and not you?
And righteous people are walking fast on the sirat (a bridge over hellfire) and you are tripping and falling?"

[Captured Thoughts | Pg. 691]

Ibn al Jawzi رحمه الله said:

“Be kind to those who are unkind to you, conclude your affairs in private and make people your acquaintances and not your friends.”
