You who believe! Do not be like those who abused Musa. Allah absolved him of what they said and he was highly honoured with Allah. (69)
(Surah Al-Ahzab (The confederates), Surah # 33: Ayah # 69)

You who believe! People should not ridicule others who may be better than themselves; nor should any women ridicule other women who may be better than themselves. And do not find fault with one another or insult each other with derogatory nicknames. How evil it is to have a name for evil conduct after coming to faith! Those people who do not turn from it are wrongdoers.(11)
