Sheikh Muhammad Ibraheem Al-Misree حفظه
الله:
Ibnul-Qayyim رحمه
الله says:
“For the tongue DOES NOT keep quiet at all. It is either a tongue that remembers or a tongue that is frivolous and it has to be one of these two.
It is the (nature
of the) SOUL that if you do not preoccupy it with truth, it will occupy you with
falsehood. It is the (nature of the) HEART that if you do not accommodate it with
love of Allaah, it will dwell with love of creation and this is a certain
reality. It is the (nature of the) TONGUE that if you do not preoccupy it with
remembrance, it will most definitely occupy you with frivolity.
Thus, choose for
your own self one of the two courses and confer upon it one of the two
standings.”
