Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books Living the Right Way Guarding the Tongue The other offences of the tongue, in addition to them being types of oppression (which itself, according to reason and religion, is forbidden), have also been prohibited in Islamic sources under their very names.

Some examples are given below: Allah the Most High said: “O you who believe, let not (one) people laugh at (another) people, perchance they may be better than they, nor let women (laugh) at (other) women, perchance they may be better than they; and do not find fault with other people, nor call one another by nicknames; evil is a bad name after faith, and whoever does not repent, he it is who is unjust.” The Holy (S) said: “Anyone who makes light of a poor believing Muslim, he has made light of Allah Himself, and Allah will make light of him on the Day of Resurrection if he does not repent.

Anyone who respects a poor believing Muslim, he will meet Allah on the Day of Resurrection while He is pleased with him.

Indeed anyone who respects his believing Muslim brother, he respects Allah the Almighty.” He (S) also said: “Anyone who abases a poor believing Muslim for his poverty and makes light of him, he has made light of Allah and remains in the wrath of Allah until he goes to one whom he has wronged and apologizes to him and the other becomes pleased with him.” He (S) also said: “Allah said: ‘Anyone who abases my believing servant, he has declared war against Me’.
