There are approximately 18,000 worlds. The dream world is a realm referred to as عالَمِ رؤیا. In this, our spoken words are depicted as snakes. The great imam of dream interpretation, Imam ibn Sīrīn رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَلَيْه says, “If a person sees a snake coming out of his mouth, then the interpretation is that he will say something that will cause harm to his life.”^{^[1]}

اَلـلّٰـه اَلـلّٰـه O devotees of the Messenger of Allah صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم ! Consider this! Snakes are venomous creatures. Similarly, our tongue is a dangerous organ. Despite it being hemmed in by 32 teeth, it does not come under control. When it spits venom, it not only harms one’s life, rather, on some occasions, it causes severe harm to one’s faith as well.

The harm of a single wrong word

The beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم stated, “A person draws near to Paradise (through good deeds) until there is only a cubit between him and it. He then says a certain word with his tongue, which causes him to be distanced from it.”^{^[2]}

Dear Islamic brothers! Do you see how dangerous the tongue is? May Allah allow us to protect our tongues. We should adopt silence, which is the first weapon necessary for the rectification of the nafs ammārah. Use the tongue properly and make a habit of weighing your words before speaking. اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه The nafs ammārah will be rectified and the devotion we felt in Ramaḍān will be maintained even after the month passes.

The virtues of hunger

Dear Islamic brothers! The second weapon for the rectification of the nafs ammārah, is the sword of hunger. The Proof of Islam, Imam
