Some Exceedingly Harmful Actions

In this sub-section certain evil pursuits are explained,by avoiding which one is saved from falling into all other evils.
1.Backbitting:First and foremost,backbitting gives rise to various evils,both in this world and the next world.Unfortunately,most of us are today addicted to it.To my mind,the simplest way ti avoid backbitting is not to discuss the character or personality of any person unless one is compelled to do so by dire necessity i.e.one should neither praise nor disparage any obe needlessly.One should rather keep oneself busy in one's own affairs.If at all you feel inclined to talk ill of somebody,better talk of yourself and none else;if you try to fulfil your own obligation conscientiously,there will be little time left for idle talk or backbitting.
2.Injustice:Another sin with far-reaching harmful effects is cruelty and injustice to others,which includes:
a.Depriving any one mony matters of his right
b.Causing physical or mental harms to others
c.Disgracing anyone
3.Vanity:Another sin is vanity and pride in oneself and disdain for others.Wrongdoing,injustice,backbitting,maliciousness,jealously,wrathfulness,and a host of other evils are born of this sin of pride and vanity.
4.Anger:Still another evil is anger.Remorse invariably follows the fits of anger.Since in a fit of passion,one's reason is overpowered by anger,whatever is done in this state is irrational.Such regrettable words escape one's lips as sound horrible after the passion has subsided,and many evil deeds are committed in the frenzy of anger.A feeling of remorse later haunts one's mind,causing life-long torture,but it is always too late to make amends.
5.Relationship with Ghair Mahram:Another such evil is developing relations(of any description)with 'ghair mahram'(unrelated)men and women of the opposite sex.'Ghair Mahram' men or women are those whom it is lawful to marry according to the Islamic Law(Shariat);the term,related men or women(Mahram)applies to the closest blood relations whom it is unlawful to marry according to the  Shariat.This evil including gazing sinfully at their faces,holding familiar conversation and taking liberties with members of the opposite sex,sitting together with them in private,dressing up or framing one's style of conversation to win their admiration.As a matter of fact,all this brings in its wake hosts of calamities which lie beyond the scope of this brief discourse
6.Consuming Doubtful or 'Haraam Food':Another expectionally harmful sin is taking food of unlawful nature or one procured from doubtful sources.Taking 'Haraam'food causes one's soul to be darkened and tarnished with evil.When 'Haraam' food is assimilated through arteries and veins,and all parts of the body are nourished by Haraam food,they will,of necessity,be contaminated by evil and they be more inclibed to commit sins
To sum up,they are six most abominable sins which,wgen commited,drag one into hosts of other misdeeds.It can be hoped that,by avoiding these sins,the rest of them can be warded off without making much effort.May Allah help us to avoid sins!Ameen(Jazaa Ul A'maal)
