The questioner : What is the grade of this hadith, and who traced it to its sources? "May Allah have mercy on a man who covers up the faults of others"?

The Shaykh : This hadith has no basis in the Sunnah, even though its meaning is sound and it should be adopted, as it can be considered wisdom. However, as a hadith from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), it has no basis.
