One of the worst ways that people use their tongue against others is through backbiting. The Prophet (SAW) said, Backbiting implies your talking about your brother in a manner which he does not like. It was said to him: What is your opinion about this that if I actually find (that failing) in my brother which I made a mention of? He said: If (that failing) is actually found (in him) what you assert, you in fact backbite against him, and if that is not in him it is a slander. [Sahih Muslim 6265] Let us keep this hadith in mind during conversations and stay away from this evil act at all times.
