"Despite being a Major Sin, Is There Any Permissible Backbiting (Ghibah) in Islam? What is it?"

"Dream - Ghibah or gossip in Islam is a reprehensible act and brings sin. Ghibah not only harms oneself but also certainly harms others. Especially if the issues discussed about someone are not in accordance with reality. Words that have been spoken will only cause suffering to that person. The Quran has explained that ghibah is likened to someone who eats the flesh of their deceased sibling."

"However, did you know, dear Dream friend, that there is permissible ghibah (backbiting) in Islam? What kind of ghibah is that?"

Including Major Sins, Is There Any Gossip Allowed in Islam?
Including Major Sins, Is There Any Gossip Allowed in Islam?

The following is an explanation of permissible ghibah (backbiting) in Islam as summarized by Dream through various sources.

"Prohibition of Gossip (Ghibah) in Islam and Its Evidence"

The prohibition of backbiting in Islam is explained in a hadith of the Prophet which states, "Verily, backbiting is talking about one's brother with words that he dislikes." (HR Muslim).

Ghibah is defined as backbiting, exposing someone's flaws, or speaking ill of someone behind their back. In Islam, ghibah is considered a sinful act that is strongly opposed as it can damage relationships among fellow Muslims. For the perpetrator, engaging in ghibah can have negative impacts on their good deeds and even result in committing major sins. Prophet Muhammad also explained, "Whoever wants to be forgiven by Allah for their major sins, they should control their tongue."

"As a consequence, those who engage in ghibah may face punishment in the afterlife, unless they apologize and receive forgiveness from the person they have gossiped about. Islam has taught its followers to avoid the act of ghibah and instead choose to speak in goodness or remain silent if there is nothing good to be said."

"Ghibah Tergolong Dosa Besar" translates to "Backbiting is Considered a Major Sin" in English.

Ghibah is an act that is strongly prohibited in Islam. Ghibah is an act of insulting, criticizing, or revealing someone's faults behind their back without justified reasons.

The evidence that backbiting is considered a major sin can be found in the Quran, in Surah Al-Hujurat, verse 12: "And do not backbite one another. Would one of you like to eat the flesh of his brother when dead? You would detest it." To avoid the sin of backbiting, first and foremost, we must deepen our understanding of backbiting and major sins. Following religious guidance and learning more about the laws of backbiting can help us avoid such actions.

Secondly, maintain behavior and speech. Avoid speaking ill of others and strive to always speak with caution. Lastly, try to cultivate empathy and compassion within oneself. Understanding that every human has flaws and mistakes will help us from easily falling into backbiting.

Examples of backbiting violations include talking about someone's flaws or faults behind their back without their presence, spreading negative gossip, and criticizing someone in any form. By understanding the meaning of backbiting, a major sin, and ways to avoid it, we can strive to be better in maintaining our behavior and speech in our daily lives.

The Negative Effects of Gossip in Life

The Negative Effects of Gossip in Life

"Ghibah or gossiping about someone behind their back has negative impacts in daily life."

The translation of the given text from 'Bahasa' to 'English' while preserving any html tags is as follows: "Example, when someone speaks badly about their friend in social environments, it can damage the friendship. For instance, if someone says negative things about their friend to others, it will create distrust and discomfort among their friends. The impact of gossip is also felt in daily social interactions. For example, if someone constantly gossips about others, it will be difficult for that person to be accepted in social environments."

Other people will become worried and distrustful of this gossip-loving person, causing friendships to become unhealthy and uncomfortable. Gossip can also distance friendships, as people who frequently produce negative gossip will be avoided by others. As a result, the person will feel lonely and isolated. Thus, gossip has a very negative impact on daily life, as it can ruin friendships, social interactions, and make someone feel alienated.

"Ghibah yang Diperbolehkan Islam Menurut Imam Nawawi" translates to "Permissible Backbiting in Islam According to Imam Nawawi" in English.

Backbiting or speaking about someone behind their back is prohibited in Islam except in 6 permissible forms according to Imam Nawawi.

Ghibah yang Diperbolehkan Islam Menurut Imam Nawawi

First, ghibah is allowed to seek legal assistance in seeking justice. Second, to warn and protect oneself from potential harm that may come from someone. Third, if someone asks for advice regarding marriage or business with someone who is known to have bad behavior. Fourth, to seek solutions or advice from others in solving problems involving the person concerned.

Fifth, ghibah is allowed if the purpose is to seek advice in changing someone's bad behavior. And finally, if someone is seeking advice or assistance in dealing with difficult situations involving others. Imam Nawawi emphasizes that in these situations, ghibah is allowed for a greater purpose.
