Courage

The best time for you to hold your tongue is the time you feel you must say something or burst out.

Tongue the Culprit

Every morning the whole

body warns the tongue saying

“Fear Allah concerning us, for we are (dependant) upon you. If you

are upright then we will be upright and if you are corrupt

then we will be corrupt.”

[Sunnan at Tirmidhi]

[Hujurat: 12]

Once a woman visited Aisha (r.a) and when the

woman got up to leave, Aisha (r.a) made a sign

with her hand indicating to the Prophet that the

woman was short of stature.

The Prophet (s.a.w) immediately chastised her,

saying, “You have said a saying that if mixed

with the sea it would change its colour.”[Abu Dawood]

همزة ل كل

مزة ويل ل

“Woe to every slanderer and backbiter.” [Humaza: 1]

“The telltale will not enter paradise.”[Bukhari and Muslim]

Once the Prophet (s.a.w) passed by two graves and said,

“They are being punished!

As regards to one of them, he used to go around gossip-mongering and as regards to the other he was not careful while urinating” [Bukhari and Muslim]

“A person utters a word thoughtlessly (i.e., without thinking about its

being good or not) and, As a result of which, he will fall down into the

fire of Hell deeper than the distance between the east and the west. ”

[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]

Why to Think before we speak???

ظ م ن ق ا يلف ول إ ل مت يد لديه رق يب ع Surah Qaf: 18

“Not a word is said except that there is a watcher by him ready

to record it.”

Surah Qaf: 18

Two angels are not neglectful Good deeds vs Bad

deeds

Why to Think before we speak???

ن قد أفلح ٱلمؤم وين هم ف ى صلت ه م ٱلذ

“Indeed successful are the believers, those who in their

prayer have Khushoo’ and those

who refrain from vain talk.”

[Mumineen: 1-3]

“Whoever can guarantee me what is between his two lips and what is

between his two legs, I can guarantee for him Paradise.”

[Sahîh al-Bukhârî]

Don’t mix bad words with your bad mood!

You will have many opportunities to change your mood, but you will

never get the opportunity to replace the words you spoke.

“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]

An experiment proved

that the decaying of an

apple was faster in the

bottle that had the

word ‘HATE’ written on

it as compare to the one

which had ‘LOVE’

written on its bottle!

Do our words really have an impact on others?

Tongue Taqwa

“O you who believe! Fear Allah and speak a word that is right. He will set right for you your deeds and forgive your

sins. And whoever obeys Allah and His Messenger has certainly attained a great achievement.”

[Ahzab: 70-71]

He who believes in Allah and the Last Day must either speak good or

remain silent.'' [Muslim]

Keep Good

Company

Give Penalty

Will my words go against me or in my favouron the Day of Judgement?”

Before Speaking Ask Your

Self

اللهم إني أعوذ بك •من شر سمعي، ومن شر بصري، ومن شر لساني، ومن شر قلبي، ومن شر مني

O Allah! I seek refuge in You from

the evils of my hearing, the evils of my seeing, the evils of my tongue; the

evils of my heart and the evils of passions

[Abu Dawud]
