Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the meaning of the Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) saying
(ﷺ) said: “A backbiter will not enter Paradise.”صلى الله عليه وسلم لا يدخل الجنة قتات
Bulugh al-Maram 16:69
, and is there a difference between him and the talebearer? The talebearer is the talebearer; it is one meaning.

Answer:
This is among the hadiths of warning. It does not mean that he is a disbeliever, or that he is permanently barred from Paradise. Rather, this is among the hadiths of warning that are taken as they came, with the belief that he does not become a disbeliever and will not remain in the Fire eternally.
