Beware of Suspicion, Spying and Backbiting
إِيَّاكُمْ وَالظَّنَّ فَإِنَّ الظَّنَّ أَكْذَبُ الْحَدِيثِ وَلَا تَحَسَّسُوا وَلَا تَجَسَّسُوا وَلَا تَنَافَسُوا وَلَا تَحَاسَدُوا وَلَا تَبَاغَضُوا وَلَا تَدَابَرُوا وَكُونُوا عِبَادَ اللَّهِ إِخْوَانًا

Translation
Narrated Abu Hurayrah (RA): The Prophet (SAW) said, 'Beware of suspicion, for suspicion is the worst form of lying. Do not spy on one another, do not eavesdrop, do not compete with one another, do not envy one another, do not hate one another, and do not turn away from one another. Be, O servants of Allah, brothers.'
