Pearl of Wisdom

'The greatest of sorcery is slandering, for through it loved ones are broken up, animosity is brought in between sincere friends, blood is shed, houses are demolished, veils are uncovered, and the talebearer is the most evil thing that has laid a step on this earth.'

Imam Ja'far ibn Muhammad al-Sadiq [as]

Bihar al-Anwar, v. 63, p. 21, no. 14
