Assalam-o-alaikum wr wb..
"What the ----------!" "Hey you, ----------, how are you?" "Where in the -------- have you been?"
If you listen to the conversation of the average Muslim youth talking to each other, unfortunately this is what you will hear.......expletives, bad words and cusses. In fact, foul language is often heard as part of their everyday life at school, universities and work place.
May Allaah protect us.
But, when you reprimand them for using such language, what do they say? "O come on! This is how everyone talks!" or "This is how I 'express' myself. or "We don't mean it in a bad way, we're just joking around with each other!"
Subhaan Allaah! Calling each other bad names and using foul language!
Since when did that become a 'joke'? Since when did cussing become part of a Muslim's vocabulary?
What a stark contrast between this and what the Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam) used to do.
The behavior of the Prophet (sal Allaahu AlaiyhiwaSallam)
Hellfire because of cussing:
Realize, dear brother/sister, that using foul language and cussing is a sin, even in joke and this is a characteristic of the people of Hellfire.
They are said to be the worst people on the Day of Judgment
Know that people who use bad words and have dirty mouths will be one of the worst people on the Day of Judgment.
Cussing is evil
Cussing and swearing is so bad that even the angels cannot tolerate it.
It is a sin
What to do?
1. Remember these beautiful words of the Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam) and either speak good or keep quiet.
2. Stay away from foul language, cussing and evil words, because YOU are a Mu'min and a Mumin does not utter filthy words or cuss at anyone.
3. Equally important is to stay away from people who speak such bad language. Because the more you hear it, the more desensitized one becomes to its evil, until a time comes when its not bad anymore.
