Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books The Ahlul-Bayt; Ethical Role-Models Good Wording Any investigation of the social crises proves that the origin of most of such troubles is the initiatives of wording and the mutual obscenity that interrupt the social relations and arise hatred. On that account, it becomes very necessary, for the interest of individuals and societies, to control one’s wording and habituate on good wording: “(Muhammad), tell My servants to say what is best.

The Shaitan sows dissension among them; he is the sworn enemy of human beings (17:53).” “They should speak righteous words to people (2:83)” “Virtue and evil are not equal. If you replace evil habits by virtuous ones, you will certainly find that your enemies will become your intimate friends (41:34).” “Be moderate in your walking and your talking. The most unpleasant sound is the braying of donkeys (31:19).” “Believers, have fear of Allah and speak righteous words.

Allah will reform your deeds and forgive your sins. (33:71-2)” The Prophet (S) said: “Allah may have mercy upon the servant who utters righteous wording to gain its good result, or keeps peace against an evil to save himself[^1].” As a man asked him for an advice, the Prophet (S) instructed: “Have control over your tongue.” As the man asked for more, the Prophet (S) repeated the same instruction.

In the third time, the Prophet (S) added: “You should know that nothing but the yields of tongues will turn people over on their nasals in Hell[^2].” Imam as-Sajjad (a) said: “Good wording increases the wealth, grows up the sustenance, postpones time of death, endears to the family members or the wife-, and takes to Paradise[^3].” Imam as-Sadiq (a) said: “Ebbad! Do you, because you have controlled your stomach and genital parts from haram, feel saved?

In His Book, Allah says: ‘Believers, have fear of Allah and speak righteous words. Allah will reform your deeds and forgive your sins. (33:71-2) ’ Nothing of your good deeds will be accepted unless you utter good and just wording[^4].” “Habituate your tongue on saying the good only, and you will gain its good. Surely, a tongue will follow that on which it is habituated.” A man asked Abu al-Hasan (a) for advice, the Imam said: “Have control over your tongue and you will be powerful.

Do not let others lead you, lest you will be humiliated[^5].” Chaste wording has its great influence in the mentalities of both the friends and enemies.
