Before you say something to anyone...

[strivingobserver98]

"When a glass is broken, the sound of breaking disappears immediately where as the glass pieces are scattered over the ground hurting whoever walks over it.
Similarly, when you say something that hurts people emotions and feelings, the voice disappears immediately but the hearts remains in pain for long."

Therefore, don't say except good and remember always the nine advises and prohibitions that Allah Al Mighty gave us in Surath Al Hujuraat (The Sura of Islamic Manners) before you say something to anyone:

1- فتبينوا:
"Fa Tabyanu": Investigate: if you received an information lest you harm people out of ignorance.

2 - فأصلحوا:
"Fa Aslihu" Make settlement: between your brothers as believers are brothers.

3- وأقسطوا:
"Wa Aqsitu": Act justly: whenever there is a dispute try for settlement and act justly among both parties as Allah loves who acts justly.

4 - لا يسخر:
"La Yaskhar": don't ridicule: people perhaps they may be better than you to Allah.

5 - ولا تلمزوا:
"Wa La Talmizu": Donot insult: one another.

6-ولا تنابزوا:
"Wa La Tanabazu": Donot call offensive nicknames each other.

7- اجتنبوا كثيرا من الظن:
"Ijtanibu Kaseeran min AlZan" aviod negative assumptions, indeed some of the assumptions are sin.

8 - ولا تجسسوا:
"Wa La Tajsasu" and don't spy on each other.

9- ولا يغتب بعضكم بعضا:
"Wa La Yagtab": Donot backbite each other: as its a major sin and like eating your dead brother's flesh.

JazakAllah khayr for sharing, truly once you speak, the words can never be forgotten, only forgiven. What people say most of the time reflects the condition of their heart.

"A person utters a word thoughtlessly (i.e., without thinking about its being good or not) and, as a result of this, he will fall down into the fire of Hell deeper than the distance between the east and the west.''
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]

SubhanAllah, may Allah SWT give us the strength to guard our tongue.
