And whoever does not repent - then it is those who are the
wrongdoers. (11)
One among those ills is backbiting. It means that you say something about
someone in his/her absence which he/she wouldn’t like if said in his/her
presence. It doesn’t matter if the mentioned shortcoming or flaw is true or false.
If it is true then it is back biting, if false then it is an accusation, which also is a
grave sin.

Another social evil is tale-bearing, slandering, or spreading rumor

Hurts people’s feelings

Damages their confidence

Destroys relationships

Creates hatred between people
