Hadith 17:247

Abu Khalid al-Ahmar narrated to us, from Ibn ‘Ajlan, from al-Harith, who said: I was holding the hand of Ibrahim while we were heading to the mosque. He said: So I mentioned a man and backbited him. He said: Ibrahim said, "Go back and perform ablution." They used to consider this [backbiting] as *hajran* (a form of foul speech or transgression).

حدثنا أبو خالد الأحمر عن بن عجلان عن الحارث قال كنت آخذا بيد إبراهيم ونحن نريد المسجد قال فذكرت رجلا فاغتبته قال فقال إبراهيم ارجع فتوضأ كانوا يعدون هذا هجرا
