We underestimate the power of gossip… We don't think of the consequences… We don't realise the ripple effects of one single conversation spent slandering someone….especially if its speculation and if you have seen something with your own eyes, it still does not justify spreading it around..
Its most likely… None of our business in any case…
You know what else we don't think about?
If someone is truly whatever you say they are… Then you're heedlessly benefitting them when you speak of them… When you use profanity and curse them…you're wiping their slate clean….
Imagine!!
Someone that has hurt you so dreadfully doesn't deserve their sins wiped away…. And yet YOU are the one aiding them?
The only way you can ensure they pay for their wrongdoings is to pray and leave it to Allah… Cry to ease your anguish… But don't curse them and don't speak of what you would want them to be accountable for…
Would you really want them smiling on the Day of Judgement instead of being punished? .. Just because you couldn't stop talking about their misdeeds….
Think my sisters… Just let's pause and think about the wisdom of why Allah tells us that gossiping is like eating the flesh of your brother… We need to take heed for our own benefits..
We really need to just keep silent about things that are irrelevant to us.
Be the person that silences gossip mongers..
Be the person that walks away from people who prefer “eating the flesh of others”
Be the person where gossip stops…
Today someone else is the topic of hot gossip…. Tomorrow your name could be on their lips…
Whether someone is right or wrong…. A Muslim knows that there is a justices system with a Divine judge… And since Allah is All Knowing…. You don't even have to justify a thing…
May Allah SWT guide us all…
