THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum As-Sabt, 13th day of Ramadhan (Saturday 18th May 2019).
Slandering & false accusations are a major sin. Lets learn, share and be careful about this serious issue. BismilLaahir Rahmaanir Raheem.
Slander, and the making of false accusations, are considered to be major sins in Islam especially whilst fasting. These involves fabricating or spreading a lie about your brother or sister (Muslim or not Muslim) in his or her absence.
The Messenger (peace be upon him) said:
"Do you know what is gheebah (Backbiting)? They said: "ALLAH and HIS Messenger (peace be upon him) knows best. He (peace be upon him) said, "Mentioning about your brother what he would hate to hear (in his absence)'. It was said: 'What about if what I say about my brother is true?' He (peace be upon him) said: "If in him is what you say you would have backbited him, and if it is not in him. then he is slandered (Buhtaan)."
[Muslim]. This is a serious crime against ourselves and none of us are free from this disease.
Of course, slander is a more heinous sin than backbiting, since it involves not only backbiting but also lying with intent to maliciously dishonor a Muslim.
The Messenger (peace be upon him) also said: "...And whoever knowingly argues uselessly, ALLAH will continue to be angry with such person until he refrains from it, and whoever says about a believer, that which is not in him ALLAH will house him in a mill of the people of the fire of Jahannam until he leaves off what he said .[Abu Dawood, Al-Haakim & others]. Never say to a Muslim brother or sister that he or she has weak eemaan or is not practising etc making yourself better than him or her. That's a serious matter in Islam.
Backbiting and slandering are both major sins in Islam, and the one who does not cease from it and repent, would be punished severely in the grave and the punishment start on earth by living a life of sadness all the time.
Ibn 'Abbaas, may ALLAH be pleased with him, said, the Messenger of ALLAH (peace be upon him) passed by two graves and said: 'The inhabitants of (these graves) are being punished for major sins; one of them used to engage in slandering others..."
[Al-Bukhari Vol. 2 Pg. 259].
May ALLAH protect us from slandering and forgive those who does so ignorantly. Aameen. May ALLAH keep guiding us and protect us from any act of disobedience to HIM. Aameen.
