During the golden Abbasid
  period, one of the scholars in
 Baghdad, the capital of Muslim
   caliphate at that time, was
reputed to hold knowledge in high
             .esteem
One day an acquaintance met
 ,the great scholar and said

"Do you know what I
just heard about your
       friend?
Scholar
  Hold on a minute, before
 telling me anything I'd like
 you to pass a little test. It's
   called theTriple Filter
            .Test
The Man


   ?Triple Filter Test
Scholar
That's right, before you talk
 to me about my friend it
might be a good idea to take
 a moment and filter what
    .you're going to say
Scholar continued

That's why I call it the triple
 filter test. The first filter is
    Truth. Have you made
absolutely sure that what you
 ?are about to tell me is true
The Man

  No, actually I just heard
       ... about it and
Scholar
 All right, so you don't really
 know if it's true or not. Now
 let's try the second filter, the
   filter ofGoodness. Is what
          ofGoodness
you are about to tell me about
  ?my friend something good
The Man


   ...No, on the contrary
Scholar
    So, you want to tell me
  something bad about him,
  but you're not certain it's
 true. You may still pass the
 test though, because there's
         :one filter left
Scholar continued

   .T he filter ofUsefulness
                ofUsefulness
Is what you want to tell me
about my friend going to be
       ?useful to me
The Man


      .No, not really
Scholar

 Well, if what you want to
 tell me is neither true nor
 good nor even useful, why
      ?tell it to me at all

Translation of the meaning:
    O you who believe! Avoid much
suspicions, indeed some suspicions are
  sins. And spy not, neither backbite
one another. Would one of you like to
  eat the flesh of his dead brother?
       You would hate it )so hate
 backbiting( . And fear Allah. Verily,
     Allah is the One Who accepts
      .repentance, Most Merciful
               Surah 49 Al-Hujurat Ayah 12
WHAT WILL YOU DO ABOUT IT!?
THE LEAST YOU CAN DO IS
    LET OTHERS KNOW
