The Tongue will one day reveal the real YOU, The tongue will one day speak out and show what is realy in your heart. Be careful as to what you have taken into your heart.
"When man wakes up in the morning each day, all parts of the body warn the TONGUE saying, ‘Fear God as regards us, for we are at your mercy; if you are upright, we will be upright and if you are crooked, we become crooked.’" (At-Tirmidhee)
Shaykh Riyadhul Haq gave an excellent example of how the tongue works in a talk on Slander.
InshaAllah I will try to put this in a very easy to understand form for all.
Lets take a look at the water pot. What comes out of it?
Only that which you put into it. Therefore if you put water inside, only water would come out, if you put blood inside, only blood would come out, if you put Zamzam inside, only Zamazam would come out, if you put dirty water inside, only dirty water will come out.
Now lets take a look at a vital organ, The Heart. The heart is the same as the water pot, What ever you put inside, the same shall come out. Let us becareful as to what we do, what we see, what we feel, how we behave, etc etc.
So what ever we take in and absorb will one day come out.
And how will it come out? The Tongue!
The weapon of Mass destruction
I have tried to keep it as simple as possible, but one can go into some great depth in their explanation of this.
