Kalau menurut hadistnya bagaimana ya ?

Sahabat Abi Hurairah ra berkata, bahwa Nabi saw telah bersabda: “Jauhilah olehmu berprasangka. Sebab prasangka adalah sejelek-jelek perbuatan (pembicaraan). Janganlah kamu saling mencari-cari kejelekan dan kesalahan orang lain, Janganlah saling menghina, Janganlah saling dengki mendengki, Janganlah saling jauh menjauhi, dan Janganlah saling mengumbar emosi. Jadilah hamba-hamba Allah yang bersaudara.” (HR. Bukhari)
