Chapter: "Throwing Dust in the Faces of Praisers".
Meaning dust, the author (may Allah have mercy on him) narrated it with his authentic chain of narration.
From Abu Ma'mar, who said: A man stood up to praise one of the governors, so al-Miqdad began throwing dust in his face and said:Al-Mustadrak lil-Hakim 36:18.
We had passed through in the previous lesson hadiths regarding the prohibition of praising a man to his face, and now the author (may Allah have mercy on him) established this chapter to clarify the ruling regarding the one who praises another: what is to be done with this praiser? In this hadith, it is explicitly stated that the Messenger (peace be upon him) ordered that dust be thrown in the face of the praiser, meaning a handful of dust is taken and then the face of this praiser is struck, as an immediate punishment for this praiser in this world before the Hereafter. This is the meaning of the hadith: "We were ordered to throw," meaning: to strike them with a handful of dust in the faces of the praisers.
