The Tongue
Editor's Comments:
Today's world is filled with cell phone talks and texts, 24x7 radio and TV programs, emails, and Social networking (Facebook, ...). It appears that we talk, text, see and hear a lot more than what it was used to be. The atmosphere is filled with all sorts of waves like wireless networks and so on.
Do we use our tongue, hands, eyes and ears for useful purposes or is it mostly talk, text and see in vain - purposes which have no benefit here or the hereafter?
Let us read the below article on The Tongue which is based on a Jumuah Khutbah.

The Tongue
Allah T’ala says in the Holy Quran, Surah Qaaf:
إِذْ يَتَلَقَّى الْمُتَلَقِّيَانِ عَنِ الْيَمِينِ وَعَنِ الشِّمَالِ قَعِيدٌ
مَا يَلْفِظُ مِن قَوْلٍ إِلَّا لَدَيْهِ رَقِيبٌ عَتِيدٌ
050.017 When the two Receivers receive (him), seated on the right hand and on the left,
050.018 He utters no word but there is with him an observer ready.
If every word we utter gets recorded and we may have to answer it in the hereafter, it becomes critical to control our speech.
