It is that flesh dangling between the the two jaws
powerful indeed it is that even a sword or a gun had to bow before it.
It made some, while many were mared by it.
It brought fame to some, while many lost repute via it.
It drew some closer to Allah; many were dew for Hell because of it.
It is so dangerous that the messenger of Allah (PBUH) had to say while crying that; ’’ ...will you listen? Allah does not punish for shedding tears, nor for the grief of the heart, but He punishes or bestows His Mercy because of this.’’ Pointing to his tongue. (bukhari vol.2 bk 23, No391) He (PBUH) also said ... is there anything that topples people on their faces into the fire of Hell other than the jest of their tongue? This tells us how incumbent it is to over us to guide our tongues. May Allah make us amongst those whose tongue would be a means of their entrance into jannah. Amen
