Zakir Naik – Six Circumstances in which Backbiting is Permitted

			backbiting of course is prohibited.
		

			irrespective whether in Ramadan or outside Ramadan, however, would a woman who complains to her
husband, about her mother in law
		

			will she be considered as personal as backbiting, regarding backbiting being haram and the major
thing we discussed in the last episode, and there are various Hadith and Quranic verses, it's one of
the major sins. But as far as a wife, complaining to the husband, regarding the mother in law, but
natural she's speaking something about the mother in law, where the mother in law would not like
anyone speaking about. So it does come in the category of
		

			like, but is it a sin is a question such incidences where a person complains to someone,
		

			and thinks, and feels that once the complaint is given to the person, maybe there is a correction in
action, like a wife complained to the husband, about the mother in law, or the wife, compared to the
husband about a son, that he is doing something which are wrong. So that has been really correct,
being a father of the child, or maybe one of the two brothers is going to complain to the Father,
that my brother did so and so thing which is wrong, it's been elaborated behind, but that is so that
the father can correct the brother.
		

			These things have been permitted. Because the main reason while doing this thing should not be to
mock at someone, or should not be to belittle anyone, but the main purpose should be that the person
who the person is complaining about they should be correction act. And if you read the commentary of
Mr. manavi, I find the hadith of say Muslim, which we discussed, in the last episode, I did number
six to six, five, in which the Prophet peace be upon him. He said that you know, what is backbiting?
And the Sabbath said that the messenger knows the best. So the Prophet said, that if someone speaks
about another person behind the back, which you would not like, that's called backbiting and the
		

			Sabbath, what if I'm speaking about the person is true, the Prophet said, then it will be called a
backbiting. If it falls, it will be called a slandering
		

			to based on this, the commentary of this hadith Taccone mama NaVi, he said that backbiting, give it
		

			in fixed conditions as permitted.
		

			Number one, he says that, if
		

			something is told, to a ruler of the land, or to a judge, complaining against the act of another
human being, who has done wrong to the person, maybe he's stolen some belt from you, taking your
property away, or an injustice to you. So if you go and complain to a ruler or to a judge, against
another human being in the Muslim, this is permitted, because you want the wrong to be undone. So in
such cases, give her this permitted. Category number two, that if you complain to someone who you
feel that person has an influence on the person who has done an evil or a sin, and you feel that he
will stop doing that evil act, you're permitted. For example, if you know of a friend, who is very
		

			close to the person who wrote an evil act, or done a sin, and if you tell him that your friend has
insurance or something, or drinking alcohol, and you feel that he has an influence on the other
person, and you can prevent him from doing the thing, it's permitted given? So the question
regarding the wife compared to the husband either comes in the first category or the second
category, either it's an ingestion to the wife, or maybe the wife wants to tell the husband that to
correct the mother in law, it may come in first two categories. The remaining four categories, which
mom now we said give it can be done. The third is that if you're approaching a Mufti or a religious
		

			person, for some religious advice, so you may say that my father had done so in fact, or my wife had
done so and so act and describe that and asked me what should I do? Even in this case, if you avoid
naming the father or the mother, also in the third person, that my friends thought they were doing
so and so it is preferable, but in such cases, while taking religious advice, or fatwa for a
particular act, it's permissible. The fourth category, which Imam I know we said that Gibbons is
permitted, is that when you know of a narrator,
		

			who is a liar, and if he narrates, any Hadith, so it becomes incumbent on you to tell the people
that he's alive, or his memory is weak, because to predict the shadow, or, for example, if someone
is selling a slave, and if he knows that there are certain bad habits in the slave, or maybe he does
adultery, so it's compulsory that the person who's selling it should tell to the buyer that the
slave has false or
		

			If a person asks you that he wants to marry and the person and ask you How will the person so that
becomes obligated on you to tell the wrong points or the points which are not correct in that he
will be intention here is not to belittle that human being the intention here is not to degrade the
person but intention is to give the right information whether for marriage or for business in these
cases, this is the fourth category where Imam and Nabil says that is permitted. I find the fifth
category is concerned that if you know a person is doing a major thing openly, like you're drinking
openly, or if he's cheating openly, or if he's robbing openly so then you can tell the public at
		

			large that this person is a person who cheats or personal rubs or personal discontinuously but there
are there is a religious person who you know, who will in fact find you know that he's not a
personal truthful so you're it's permitted that you can speak into the person and the sixth category
is that while identifying a person, if someone asked you for identification, at that time, to
identify the person you may have to use his nickname, which the person may not like you may have
drilled that the person who shot person who stole to hear you're using the nicknames to identify the
person with the person may not like
		

			mainly find here also if you can avoid this nickname, find friction is the best, but if you can
avoid you can do. Mr. Mondovi had mentioned six categories in which Gibberd is permitted. Thank you
Dr. Zakia.
