Most of the People Who Will Enter the Fire Will Do So Due to Their Tongues So the servant must beware! We could invalidate all our fasting and prayer from just one gathering. There is no success of us unless we learn how to imprison our tongues from vain talk. Allah (SWT) has placed this tongue of ours in a prison, that it does not come out except when there is a need for it. Umm Habiba (RA) reports that the Prophet (SAW) said: Every saying of the children of Adam is cursed except for enjoining good and forbidding the evil or for the remembrance of Allah. (Hasan Gharib Tirmidhee) Yet you will find ninety percent of the time our tongues are not engaged in this. Rather we choose to continue with our vain talk, joking, laughing, backbiting and slandering. Imam Ahmad (rahimahullah) on the authority of Salamn ibn Suhaim on the authority of his mother who heard the Prophet (SAW) say: A man may be close to paradise such that the distance between him and it is one derah (arm length) and he speaks a word and he becomes distant from it further than San’aa.
