Meaning of tale-bearing
Hadith 2360
- " ألا أنبئكم ما العضه؟ هي النميمة القالة بين الناس، وفي رواية: النميمة التي تفسد بين الناس ".
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) says: Indeed, Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Shall I not tell you what «عضه» is? It is carrying tales between people." And in another narration: "It is tale-carrying that causes discord among people."
