An insightful and illuminating piece, relevant to contemporary society in how to differentiate between truthful speakers, and deceitful ranters. I love that metaphor; keep the safety latch on your tongue, inshaAllah.
Very similar to a sheikh I once heard whom said each vessel (person) will only pour it what is in it; the tongue is the ability to express what lies within it – television, friends etc – all that are environmental forces that shape that person. And the moment we ‘open’ our tongue what we are doing is essentially squeezing what is in us. And so for the outcome to be positive the input needs to be positive insha’Allah. A safety latch is required.

Jazak’Allah khairan.

Great reminder Alhamdulillah for us to to be careful to never drop the guard with our tongue, be it the workplace or gym or home. Also I sincerely hope that the readers realize and implement the deep wisdom hidden in your statement in sha Allah: “…, the same way that knowledge is a means towards action, rather than a goal in itself.” Too many times we do not internalize the ‘knowledge’ that we have learnt (in this case religious knowledge specifically), and consequently do not observe any change in our attitude and resultant behavior/action. May Allah preserve you and have mercy on you.

wasalam.

It can shoot more 30 insults per minuite keeping the angel on your left shoulder trying to keep up with the fire rate!

indeed the young is the most useful tool on earth. It can shoot more then 60 dhikr of of allah per minuite.

on valentines day, how many “no”s does it require to get a desperate and suicidal man to kill himself? Onely one “no”. The “no” that is transmitted into a guy holding a cellphone on top of a bridge.

the tongue is very dangerous.
