Question:
His final question says: Are backbiting and talebearing, as well as showing off in one's deeds, among the defects of creed?

Answer:
Backbiting and talebearing are injustice among people. The talebearer and the backbiter are unjust to the one he backbites or spreads about. This is injustice. It is injustice by the servant to people, may Allah protect us from it. Yes. And it is among the defects of creed, in the sense that all bad deeds and forbidden things all defect the creed, yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
