  • The power of words is a central insight in Islam. Four words spoken sincerely suffice to mark that someone is a believer. Our tongues are a great blessing from our Lord, but their power can set us on the path of good or of harm. In this khutbah, Shaykh Hamza Yusuf, president of Zaytuna College, provides important and timeless advice for how to guard ourselves from the pitfalls of excessive and malevolent speech.

    I don't usually comment, but I've read somewhere that when you have positive thoughts about someone, let them know right then. You speak so beautifully, Shaykh Hamza Yusuf. I always pray to Allah that I have a pure, truthful tongue, one that doesn't hurt someone, and you have that. You speak so beautifully, Shaykh. You'll be remembered in my prayers for quite a long time now ❤

      Back in high school, I read an essay by Somerset Maugham where he expressed those same sentiments, about letting people know if they were good or helpful to you…

    Subhanallah cutting off from the vain and that which does not concern one, is so beautiful and so peaceful - and this is our Deen Al-Islaam. Unfortunately many many are confused between knowledge (Deen and Dunya) and gossip (backbiting, slandering, private matters...) And they have not brakes and are self deluded, boastful and vainglorious! Oh Allah protect us all from these prohibitions and give more taqwa and tawfeeq. Ameen

    May Allāh have mercy on those believers who only listen to debates and speakers with sharp tongues who do not warn the listeners against the dangers of what they say or of the fact that what they type is equal to what they say. May the ones who lead the listeners into this fitnah have the collective sins of those affected by their words placed solely on them until they repent sincerely. Then, may Allāh forgive them as well.
    Ameen.

    And give good tidings to those who believe and do righteous deeds that they will have gardens [in Paradise] beneath which rivers flow. Whenever they are provided with a provision of fruit therefrom, they will say, ‘This is what we were provided with before.’ And it is given to them in likeness. And they will have therein purified spouses, and they will abide therein eternally.” (Q. 2:25)

    In the Noble Quran Allah SWT says:
    in Surah Al-Hujurat-Aya 12:O you
    who have believed, avoid much [negative] assumption. Indeed, some assumption is sin. And do not spy or backbite each other. Would one of you like to eat the flesh of his brother when dead?
    May Allah SWT bless Shaykh and everyone
    propagating our beautiful Deen Islam positively in this world and most especially Hereafter Ameen Ya Rabb. Jazakallahu Khairan

    If we wrong someone, and it may cause more harm than good to seek forgiveness from this act with the individual we wronged, can we do tawbah to Allah and ask for forgiveness with Allah and it be accepted? Ask for Allah to increase those we wronged in all good ways?

    My in-laws actually do a lot of these sins but they seem ok. Sometimes a doubt comes in my mind regarding these sins. They can destroy someone's reputation very easily and looking at how they act seems there is no retribution for these actions. But I know it's a doubt

      *{Verily, to Us will be their return, then verily, for Us will be their Reckoning}* (Al-Ghashiyah 88:25-26)
      You're right, its waswas. Retribution or reward is only given TRULY on the day we are all held to account.
