and indeed you could not, then how will you be able to bear the torment of the dreadful well in Hell?

May Allah Almighty grant us the ability to become steadfast and sincere in offering our prayers.

اٰمِیْنْ بِجَاہِ خاتَمِ النَّبِیّٖن صلَّی اللہُ عَلَیْہ ِوَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ

Dear Islamic brothers, there are other evil deeds that make one deserving of the valley of Wayl in Hell. Allah Almighty states:

وَیْلٌ لِّکُلِّ ھُمَزَۃٍ لُّمَزَۃِۣ ۙ (۱) الَّذِیْ جَمَعَ مَالًا وَّ عَدَّدَہٗ ۙ(۲)

Woe to every slanderer, backbiter who amassed wealth and counted it.^{^[1]}

Dear Islamic brothers, these are three more evil deeds that make one deserving of the valley of Wayl in Hell:

Taunting others

Backbiting (i.e., speaking ill of someone behind their back)

Amassing wealth.

Sadly, these three evils are quite prevalent in our society today.

In the noble Quran, Allah Almighty commands the believers:

وَ لَا تَلْمِزُوْۤا اَنْفُسَکُمْ وَ لَا تَنَابَزُوْا بِالْاَلْقَابِ ؕ

And do not defame one another nor offend one another with nicknames.^{^[2]}
