This document is an introduction to a book about the evils of the tongue. It discusses how success is defined in Islam as purifying one's soul to earn Paradise and avoid Hellfire. While material pursuits lead to failure, following Allah's guidance by obeying His commands and avoiding prohibitions leads to success.
The misuse of one's tongue can negate efforts to achieve spiritual success, as evidenced by hadiths of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). He warned that evil words may lead one to the depths of Hell, and that controlling one's tongue is key to entering Paradise. Due to the dangers of the tongue, the book aims to study its major evils so readers can restrain it
