like this: How much did you buy it? From where have you bought it? How many years warranty does it have?

Remember! Asking about these things unnecessarily is considered to be a useless conversation and one has to account for it in the Hereafter. Sometimes by asking these questions, one starts backbiting and committing tale-telling, fighting and quarrelling. For example if someone rents a house, questions are asked: How many rooms does it have? How much is the rent? How is the landlord? It is a very dangerous question about the landlord. The sinful answer to this question is given usually without any Shar’i permission like this: Our landlord is very strict, merciless and short-tempered. He does not tolerate even the delay of one day regarding the rent.

Remember! All these fall into the category of backbiting and to do backbiting against any Muslim means you are destroying yourself. It is stated on page 26 of ‘Gheebat ki Tabahkariyan’ (Backbiting – A Cancer in our Society): Backbiting cuts faith. Backbiting leads to bad end. The Du’a of the one who does backbiting abundantly is not answered. One loses the spirituality of Salah and Sawm due to backbiting. Backbiting destroys virtuous deeds. Backbiting burns virtuous deeds. One who does backbiting will be the last to enter Paradise even after repenting of it. In short, backbiting is a grave sin, absolutely Haraam and an act leading to Hell.

Dear Islamic sisters! At present, due to lack of knowledge some people are getting so much uncontrolled that whatever comes to their mind they speak immediately. They do not think even for a moment what they are saying. This habit of speaking uselessly makes a person speak what she should not speak and puts her into hot water. Sometimes even a person utters words of unbelief and loses her most precious thing ‘faith’ and she does not know at all about it that she no longer remains a Muslim and also has invalidated her Nikah (marriage). Some people are very inconsiderate. They want such confirmation after every utterance unnecessarily: Yes sisters! Is it ok or not? Am I saying wrong! What do you think? Now, at all costs, a person has to say
