Framing admonition in general terms

1986 1 January 10 Framing admonition in general terms (58) According to ‘Aisha, when the Prophet used to hear something displeasing about a person, then he would not take that person’s name when administering admonishment. Rather he would say: “What’s up with people who do or say such things.” Thus he would discourage people in a general way from following suit, without directing criticism at anyone in particular.
