“A man may speak a word that angers Allah and not see
anything
wrong with it, but it will cause him to sink down in Hell
the depth of
seventy autumns.”
Sunan Ibn Majah Book 36, Hadith 45
← Previous Hadith
“You
have kinship and rights, and I see you entering upon these rulers and
speaking to them as Allah wills you should speak. But i heard Bilal
bin Harith Al-Muzani, the Companion of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ),
say that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘One of you may speak a
word that pleases Allah, and not know how far it reaches, but Allah
will record for him as pleasure, until the Day of Resurrection due to
that word. And one of you may speak a word that angers Allah, and not
know how far it reaches, but Allah will record against him his anger,
until the Day he meets Him due to that word.”
'Alqamah said: "So look, woe to you, at what you say and what you speak about, for there is something that I wanted to say but I refrained because of what I heard from Bilal bin Harith."
