This sermon strongly condemns *namimah* (tale-bearing), highlighting it as a major sin that destroys unity and fosters animosity among Muslims. The Imam cites Quranic verses and Hadith, emphasizing that tale-bearers will not enter Paradise and that their actions combine multiple grave sins, including backbiting. He explains the difference between *nammam* and *qattat* and details the severe punishment awaiting them in the grave. The sermon concludes by providing six essential guidelines for anyone who hears *namimah*, advising them not to believe the tale-bearer, forbid the act, verify information, and avoid spreading the gossip.
