The Ruling on the Good Word and the Forbidden Word

Question:
May Allah bless you. This questioner says: Shaykh, I read in a hadith that he is rewarded for it. Some people do not weigh the words they utter or the hadith. What is the benefit derived from this hadith? A man may speak a word.

Answer:
and he does not give it any thought, so Allah raises him in rank by it, meaning the good word. And a man may speak a word and not give it any thought, meaning one from the anger of Allah, a forbidden word, by which he plunges into the Fire farther than the distance between the East and the West. So a person should hold his tongue back from bad speech and foul speech, and not speak except with good. Yes.
