عن جعفر بن برقان : قال لي ميمون بن مهران : يا جعفر قل لي في وجهي ما أكره ، فإن الرجل لا ينصح أخاه حتى يقول له في وجهه ما يكره .

Jafar bin Burqaan narrated that Maymoon bin Mihraan,  rahimahullah, said to him, “Oh  Jafar! Say to my face what I dislike, for verily a man hasn’t advised his fellow brother up until he says to him in his face what he dislikes.”
