Dear Islamic sisters! Make your mind to protect your tongue in order to protect yourself from this disgrace on the Judgement Day. Get into the habit of avoiding useless conversation, as speaking less is such a deed for which Sayyiduna Adam عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلاَم has been made to promise.
Dear Father! Why don’t you speak?
Sayyiduna Abdullah Bin Abbas رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُمَا has narrated: When Sayyiduna Adam عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلاَم was sent to the earth, he had a great many children. One day, his sons, grandsons and great-grandsons (sons of grandsons) all gathered around him and were talking, whereas he sat silent and did not speak. His children humbly asked: Father! What is the reason you are quiet and we are talking? Abul Bashar Sayyiduna Adam عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلاَم replied: ‘O my sons! When Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ sent me to the earth from His closeness (i.e. Paradise), I was made to promise: O Adam! Speak less till you regain My closeness’. (Tareekh-e-Baghdad, vol. 7, pp. 339, Raqm. 3843)
Dear Islamic sisters! Have you heard! To speak less has been given such great importance that Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ Himself is commanding His highly respected Nabi عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلاَم to speak less. We have to take great care in protecting our tongue and saving it from speaking uselessly. Alas, Alas! Neither do we have the mind-set of observing Qufl-e-Madinah of tongue, nor have the fear of speaking too much and useless conversation. It is the tongue due to whose misuse many people will be made to enter Hell.
Bad conversation will make us fall flat on the face in the Hell!
Sayyiduna Ubadah Bin Samit رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ has narrated: The Beloved Rasool
صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ
وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ came
out of his home and got on his vehicle. Sayyiduna Mu’az Bin Jabbal رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ humbly asked: Ya Rasool Allah صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم! Which deed is the best? Pointing towards his blessed mouth, he
صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ
وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said: To stay quiet except
for speaking about righteousness. It was humbly asked: Will Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ account
for what we speak [from our tongue]? Hitting his blessed hand on his thigh the
Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى
عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said: O Mu’az! Words uttered
from the tongues will make people fall
