00:00:00.240 --> 00:00:02.589
Allah the Exalted says:

00:00:02.589 --> 00:00:08.589
And do not obey every habitual swearer, who is contemptible,

00:00:08.589 --> 00:00:16.589
A slanderer, going about with malicious gossip.

00:00:16.589 --> 00:00:24.550
Namimah (malicious gossip) is the act of conveying people’s words to one another with the intent of causing discord.

00:00:24.550 --> 00:00:27.550
It is one of the major sins.

00:00:27.550 --> 00:00:30.710
On the authority of Hudhayfah, may Allah be pleased with him,

00:00:30.710 --> 00:00:33.710
From the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, who said:

00:00:33.710 --> 00:00:36.710
"The slanderer shall not enter Paradise."

00:00:36.710 --> 00:00:39.710
And on the authority of Asma' bint Yazid,

00:00:39.710 --> 00:00:43.710
That the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said:

00:00:43.710 --> 00:00:45.710
"The worst of Allah’s servants

00:00:45.710 --> 00:00:48.710
Are those who go about with malicious gossip,

00:00:48.710 --> 00:00:51.710
Who sow discord between those who love one another."
