Question:
Does slander and backbiting diminish faith? And what is your advice for one who has become accustomed to this act?
Answer:
Without a doubt, every sin, every sin, diminishes faith. The forbidden diminishes the perfection of obligatory faith, and the disliked diminishes the perfection of recommended faith. So there is no doubt that every sin diminishes faith. Backbiting and talebearing are among the greatest of major sins, among the greatest of forbidden things. Yes.
