What the Qur'an Says about Honest backbiting | S1 E9 | Shk. Abbas Jaffer | Living the Quran
You think it's just banter with the boys. But what if the Quran is calling it something far more disturbing? In this episode of Living the Quran, Sheikh Abbas Jaffer unpacks one of the most vivid โ and unsettling โ images in the entire Quran: that backbiting is like chewing the flesh of your dead brother. Most of us don't even realise we're doing it. And the ones who do? We've convinced ourselves it doesn't count. We cover: ๐น The exact 3-condition definition of backbiting (and why "I'm just telling the truth" doesn't get you off the hook) ๐น What to actually do when your friend circle starts going south mid-conversation ๐น The business setting โ when does seeking advice about someone cross the line? ๐น Why As-salamu alaykum carries a responsibility most of us have forgotten ๐น How our conversations reveal our level of maturity โ and how to grow out of it If you've ever sat in a gathering and felt that uneasy feeling โ this episode is for you. โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ CHAPTERS 00:00 โ What does the Quran actually say about backbiting? 00:35 โ Introduction & Surah Al-Hujurat 02:51 โ What is Riba (backbiting)?
