Speak truthfully and avoid exaggeration when praising someone or something. Be mindful of our words and how they may affect others around us.

This hadith, narrated by Abu Musa, warns against the act of exaggerating in praise of someone. It is reported that the Prophet (ﷺ) heard a man praising another man and he was going overboard with his compliments. In response to this, the Prophet (ﷺ) said "You have destroyed/cut the back of the man". This statement implies that one should not go too far with their compliments as it can be damaging to both parties involved. It is important to remember that we should always speak truthfully and avoid exaggeration when praising someone or something. We should also be mindful of our words and how they may affect others around us.
