Transliteration:
wa 'an Mu'aadhibni Jabalin radhiyallahu ta'alaa 'anhu qaala qaala rasoolullahi sallaallahu alayhe wa salam, " Man 'ay-yara akhaaho bi dhanbin lam yamut hat-ta ya' malah." Akh ra ja hut- Tirmidhee wa has-snah wa sanaduhu mun qa ti'.
Translation:
#1310. Narrated Mu'adh bin Jabal[a] radhiyallahu ta'alaa 'anhu, Allah's Messenger Sallallahu alayhe wa salam said, "If anyone disgraces his brother for a sin, he will not die before committing it himself."[3] [At-Tirmidhi [b] reported it saying it is a hasan[c] Hadith, but a Munqati'.[d]]
Commentary:
[3] It thus gets known to us that merely making a mention of a vice is a sinful act. It is a sin to mention a vice by attributing it to someone, but it is a double sinful act to mention it directly in front of someone in order to rake his memory deliberately to put him to shame. Hadith states that one should not remind anyone of his sin as a rejoinder to his statement.

Pronunciation: ri-'join-d&r
Function: noun
Etymology: Middle English rejoiner, from Middle French rejoindre to rejoin
1 : the defendant's answer to the plaintiff's replication
