flat on the face into the Hell. So the one who believes in Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ and the Judgement Day, should speak good or stay quiet from speaking bad.

Definition of useless conversation
Dear Islamic sisters! Have you heard! Our Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم stated a very beautiful method of staying safe. Safety lies in it that a person speaks good and avoids speaking bad. Remember! We will be able to succeed in observing Qufl-e-Madinah of tongue and staying safe from the destruction of useless conversation when we know what useless conversation is. Regarding this, Sayyiduna Imam Ghazali رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه has said: The definition of useless conversation is that, to have such conversation, from which if you stop, you will not become a sinner, and nor will you suffer any loss at present or in future. For example, you describe your journey in front of people in any gathering and relate the events that occurred to you and the mountains and streams you saw during the journey. Similarly, you mention the food and clothes you like and the wonderful things about the Mashaikh of different cities and their wonderful events. These are the acts due to which you will not become a sinner if you do not mention them, and nor will you suffer any loss, though you try your best not to make any reduction or addition in describing the incident, and nor does it have any backbiting and any condemnation of the creation. Despite all these precautions you will be the one who wastes his time. And how will you protect yourself from the evils of useless conversation? (Ihya-ul-‘Uloom, vol. 3, pp. 345)
