Prohibitions of the Tongue - Digital Video

A famous hadith details several saving virtues and ends with the Prophet, God's peace and blessings be upon him, summarizing, "Shall I not tell you how to achieve all of this?"

He took a hold of his tongue and said, "Restrain this." Restraint of the tongue has been considered by scholars to be a central prerequisite to character development.
