Advice on being lenient with cursing, backbiting, and talebearing

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
His other question says: Lately, some people have become lax in their cursing, insulting, cursing, backbiting, and talebearing. I want advice from you for everyone who is lax with this phenomenon that is widespread among some people.

Answer:
A person must control his tongue and restrain it from bad speech, cursing, and insults, because this will harm him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Whoever can guarantee (the chastity of) what is between his two jaw-bonesمن يضمن لي ما بين لحييه
Sahih al-Bukhari 6474
meaning the tongue and what is between his legs, meaning the private parts. Yes, I guarantee him Paradise. Yes.
