Habits We Should Change 2

This week's HWSC is:
"Backbiting and Gossiping"

Reason:Talking about someone when he/she is not there, and spreading lies about one another is not only haram but also inhuman. Backbiting could lead to many problems. Gossiping is lying and backbiting at the same time. Therefore you have two times the trouble. Before talking bad about someone, think whether you would like such a bad thing said about you. Backbiting and gossiping are two things many cultures carry and inherit. It is very hard to let go of such a thing that you've been brought up with and surrounded most of the time. But it is still worth a try, because it will not only help you in this world but the afterlife as well. (Inshallah)

Back Up Ayah:
O you who believe! Avoid much suspicion, in deeds some suspicions are sins. And spy not neither backbite one another. Would one of you like to eat the flesh of his dead brother? You would hate it (so hate backbiting). And fear God, verily, God is the one who accepts repentance, Most Merciful. (49: 12)
