Be careful about your talking

[shaikhrafique]

 

 

‏

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:Hadith no.1

 

I heard the Prophet (ﷺ) saying, "A person utters a word thoughtlessly (i.e., without thinking aboutBe careful about your talking its being good or not) and, as a result of this, he will fall down into the fire of Hell deeper than the distance between the east and the west." According to Islamic teachings, every person should speak in a way that does not hurt anyone's feelings, does not backbite anyone, does not slander anyone, does not abuse anyone, does not deceive anyone, and speaks truthfully and correctly. Otherwise, if a person keeps speaking like this without any purpose, then according to the Hadith Sharif, the result of this conversation will be that that person will fall into the fire of Hell. Therefore, such conversation should be avoided.

 

Hadith no.2

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "A man utters a word pleasing to Allah without considering it of any significance for which Allah exalts his ranks (in Jannah); another one speaks a word displeasing to Allah without considering it of any importance, and for this reason he will sink down into Hell." [Al-Bukhari and Muslim].

To understand the meaning of this Hadith, it is necessary to consider these two verses

 

And thus it is: if We let him taste ease and plenty after hardship has visited him, he is sure to say, 'Gone is all affliction from me!'-for, behold, he is given to vain exultation, and glories only

 

Hud (The Prophet Hud) 11:10

 BUT IF they turn away [from thee, O Prophet, know that] We have not sent thee to be their keeper: thou art not bound to do more than deliver the message [entrusted to thee]. And, behold, [such as turn away from Our mes­sages are but impelled by the weakness and incon­stancy of human nature: thus,] when We give man a taste of Our grace, he is prone to exult in it; but if misfortune befalls [any of] them in result of what their own hands have sent forth, then, behold, man shows how bereft he is of all gratitude!

Ash-Shura (The Consultation) 42:48

of the Holy Quran in which Allah Almighty has mentioned two states of man. The first state is that when Allah Almighty bestows some blessings on a person or he experiences a state of happiness, he speaks good words in praise of Allah Almighty and becomes happy. On the contrary, if Allah Almighty bestows some misfortune on him or puts him in a state that causes him distress, he speaks bad words in praise of Allah Almighty and nothing happens. However, there are two things for man: when Allah Almighty bestows a blessing on him, he gives thanks, and if a misfortune befalls him, he bears it patiently, that is, he should be in a state of submission and contentment, and he should not speak any bad words in praise of Allah Almighty. We pray to Allah Almighty to grant us the ability to act on these two hadiths. Amen.
