Question:
Allah has sent you: What is the ruling on talebearing and sowing discord among people?
Answer:
It is forbidden. This is the one who sows discord among people, inciting some of them against others. This is a talebearer, may Allah protect us from that. Allah the Exalted said:[Al-Qalam 68:10-11] He walks among people spreading talebearing to cause corruption between them. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sahih Muslim 105a This is a severe warning. Talebearing is forbidden because it fills hearts with resentment and causes division among the Muslims. Yes.
