Cover a fault, Allah will cover yours

مَنْ سَتَرَ مُسْلِمًا سَتَرَهُ اللَّهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ

Man satara musliman satarahu-llahu yawma-l-qiyamah.

"Whoever covers [the fault of] a Muslim, Allah will cover him on the Day of Resurrection."

Narrated by Ibn Umar. Sahih al-Bukhari 2442, Sahih Muslim 2580

A short reflection

Gossip is easy. The hadith's promise runs in the opposite direction, conceal, and you'll be concealed when it matters.
