DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum al-khamis 17th day of Ramadhaan (Thursday 29th April 2021).
*_HOW DANGEROUS IS OUR TONGUE?_* BismilLaah.
Ibn `Umar (radiallahu anhuma) reported: The Messenger of Allah (salallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said, “Do not indulge in excessive talk except when remembering ALLAH. Excessive talking without the Remembrance of ALLAH hardens the heart; and those who are the farthest from ALLAH are those whose hearts are hard.” [At-Tirmidhi].
If one indulges in idle talk rather than the remembrance of ALLAH, his heart becomes hardened, which is a sign of being far from Allah’s Mercy. One should therefore occupy himself with the remembrance of ALLAH.
If we observe it in our daily life, we see that Sometimes a person utters a good sentence which pleases an individual and he reforms himself or holds himself from doing something wrong. Such a sentence or utterance is highly rewarded by ALLAH. Similarly, sometime a person utters a mischievous sentence, the ruinous effects of which he does not realize. This utterance hurts someone’s feelings and leads him to sin and evil. Almighty ALLAH is displeased with such a person. Therefore the lesson that this Hadith has for us is that one should strictly guard his speech and weigh his words to avoid Allah’s Wrath.
I promise I will try to remember this from now on and work hard to keep my tongue guarded against evil and harshness In Sha’a ALLAH. Would you? Don't say yes but In?....... *_May ALLAH aid us in our efforts to stop all forms of speaking about others other than good speech_*. Aameen.
