at-Tabayyun - Verification of news
Contents > Relationships with others > Verification of news
You must verify news reaching you. You shuld not take rumors as fact, rather you should check with others if you hear anything bad about them before believing it. Allah says,
“O you who believe! When you go (to fight) in the Cause of Allah, verify (the truth), and say not to anyone who greets you (by embracing Islam): "You are not a believer"; seeking the perishable goods of the worldly life. There are much more profits and booties with Allah. Even as he is now, so were you yourselves before till Allah conferred on you His Favours (i.e. guided you to Islam), therefore, be cautious in discrimination. Allah is Ever Well¬ Aware of what you do.” al-Qur’an, Surah al-Nisaa’, 4: 94
Allah says,
“O you who believe! If any Fasiq comes to you with a [slanderous] tale, verify (al-Tabayyun), lest you hurt people out of ignorance and afterwards be filled with remorse for what you have done.” al-Qur’an, Surah al-Hujurat, 49: 6
