Allah
in the Quran says, the example of a
good word
is like a good, strong tree.
A couple of months back,
where we had all these storms and tornadoes,
trees that were just planted
broke off.
Why? Because they weren't firming.
But trees that have been around
that were strong,
Allah
says, this tree, its roots are deep in
the ground, and its branches are out that
people benefit from
it. And this is the example of a
good word.
When you say something nice,
when you say something that's encouraging,
when you say something that on the day
of judgment,
everything that you say will be held against
you except for 3 things,
amalbimaru,
when you tell somebody to do good. Wanahi
andilmunkar,
stopping someone from bad. Wazikrullah
and reminding somebody of Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala.
And this is what Allah
here is saying.
Everything that we say will be held against
us
that these angels come and write it down
and take it to Allah.
The prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam in one
hadith says,
from guarding your tongue, a part of guarding
your tongue is
minhusnil
Islam
almaru
This hadith, a very small hadith,
Imam Nawi
brings it in his collection of 40 hadith
and Imam Abu Dawood
he says, our deen, our whole deen
is based upon 4 hadith.
Your whole religion,
your faith, everything is based upon 4 hadith.
And he says, from those 4 hadith
is one of them is right here, meaning
this hadith is 25%
of your religion.
Islam from the beauty of a person's iman.
That you do do not bother yourself with
things that don't concern you.
What's going on in your life?
How are things?
Have you seen what they are
doing?
And this, of course, links into social media,
but we we understand is that this is
also a sin of the tongue.
Another Hadith prophet says
that whoever can guarantee 2 things for
me, I will in return guarantee them Jannah.
You want Jannah?
Here it is.
So this is basically the hadith of Mu'az
bin Jabal that had many different things. But
then the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam narrows
it down even more and he says,
Whoever can guarantee
these two things,
if you can protect yourself and you can
guarantee that you will not misuse these two
things, then in return I will guarantee
you Jannah.
And then Rasool Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, he
says,
he says that which is between your thighs
and that which is between your jaws.
If you can control your desires
and you can control your tongue,
imagine that,
That your tongue is so weighty
that either it can get you into jannah
or it can push you away from the
fire of jannah.
Right here.
Rasool Allah says, whoever can guarantee
me these two things then I will guarantee
the person Jannah. Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala in
the Quran tells us, ordering us and informing
us, Allahumma salallahu
alayhi wa salamataslima. Allahumma salallahu alayhi wa salamataslima.
O Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, we ask you

things easy for us. Oh Allah, we ask
