Assalamu Alaikum,

Allah (SWT) says concerning the tongue "“Not a word does one utter, except that there is an (angel) Watching, Ready to
record it.” [Surah Qaaf: 18]"

And He says:

“Verily, your Lord is Ever-Watchful." [Surah Al-Fajr: 14]"

Imaam Ash-Shaafi'ee ( rahimahullaah) said: "When one desires to talk, then it is upon him to think before he speaks. If there is beneficial good in what he will say, then he should speak. And if he has doubt about that, then he must not speak until he clears that doubt (by making his speech good)."

Abu Moosaa Al-Ash'aree ( radyAllaahu ‘anhu) reported: "I said: 'O Messenger of Allaah! Which of the Muslims is best?' He (sallAllaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) responded: 'He whose tongue and hand the Muslims are safe from.'" 2

Sahl Ibn Sa'ad ( radyAllaahu ‘anhu) reported that Allaah’s Messenger ( sallAllaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said: "Whoever can guarantee for me (that he will guard) what is between his jaws (tongue) and what is between his legs (private parts), I will guarantee for him Paradise." 3

Abu Hurairah ( radyAllaahu ‘anhu) reported that he heard the Prophet ( sallAllaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) say: "Indeed, the servant (of Allaah) will speak a word, while being unaware of (its consequences), and due to it, he will be cast into the Hellfire, farther than the distance between the east and the west." 4

May Allah (SWT) forgive us all and grant us all paradise (Ameen)

Salam

Talking too much without thinking is definately one of my biggest problems. I hope Allah (swt) will take my condition into consideration come judgement day! JazakaAllah walaal
