 they said there is no one more humiliated than a backbiter because he hides his person suppresses his feelings and lowers his voice. he only increases what he gets from that by raising the status of his opponent and magnifying his importance.
قالوا وليس من أحد أذل من مغتاب؛ لأنه يخفي شخصه، ويطامن حسه، ويغض من صوته؛ ولا يزيد بما يناله من ذلك إلا بأن يرفع من قدر خصمه ويعظم من شأنه.
