The third question of Fatwa No. ( 4971 ):


Q3: Which is the greater sin, the eye or the mouth?
A3: What a person does with his mouth may be more reprehensible and sinful than what he does with his eye. He may commit shirk (associating partners with Allah), which is the greatest sin by which Allah is disobeyed, or speak about Allah without knowledge, or commit other known major sins of the tongue. It is authentically reported that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
And he was asked about that for which people are admitted into the Fire the most, and he said: " The mouth and the private parts."أكثر ما يدخل الناس النار الأجوفان: الفرج والفم
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2004Sahih (Darussalam)
. From this, it is known that the mouth is more dangerous than the eye. And success is from Allah. May Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
