Hazrat Abu Hurairah رضي الله عنه has narrated that the Holy Prophet sallallahou alayhe wasallam said: He who believes in Allah and the Last Day should talk only on good and righteous topics or keep quiet. (Sahih Bukhari) The second narrative is also attributed to Hazrat Abu Hurairah رضي الله عنه: It is narrated by Hazrat Abu Hurairah رضي الله عنه, that he heard the Holy Prophet sallallahou alayhe wasallam saying:
when a man speaks out a word without thinking and understanding (its repercussions), that word throws him down into Hell to a depth deeper than the distance between East and West. (Sahih Bukhari).
There is a third Hadith narrated by Hazrat Abu Hurairah which brings out the same meaning:
Hazrat Abu Hurairah رضي الله عنه , has narrated that the Holy Prophet sallallahou alayhe wasallam said: Sometime a man says something to please Allah, even though he does not feel the importance of the word and utters it unwittingly; yet Almighty Allah elevates his rank in Paradise because of that word. On the contrary there is a man who sometimes utters a word that displeases Allah. Although he utters that word unintentionally and carelessly, yet the curse of that word throws him down into Hell. (Sahi bukhari).
Take care of your tongue
The three Ahadith invite attention to the importance of refraining from the sins of the tongue and use it only in uttering words which pleases Allah and save it from incurring Allah's displeasure. It has already been stated that the most important point for us is that we should always try to shun sins. Out of these sins here we are dealing only with such sins as are committed with this tongue. Sometimes a Inan utters with his tongue words without caring their effect and they become a cause of punishment for him. That is why the Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم has advised that we should all use our tongues with due precaution and thought. If you have in your mind something good and beneficial, speak it out or keep quiet.
