Advice of Today vs. Advice of Yesterday


Ibn Al-Mubarak said:

“It used to be that if a man saw something from his brother that he disliked he would command him in private or forbid him in private.Thus he would be rewarded for prohibiting him (from evil) and rewarded for covering  him (his flaws).Today if he sees from him that which he dislikes he hates him and exposes him!
