Risālat al-Ḥuqūq 1, narration 4

attributed to Imam Zayn al-ʿĀbidīn (a.s) · The Rights of Allah against oneself

2

Arabic text

وَأَمَّا حَقُّ اللّسَان فَإكْرَامُهُ عَنِ الْخَنَى وتَعْوِيدُهُ الْخَيْرِ وَ تَرك الْفُضُول الَّتي لا فائِدَةِ لَها و البِرُّ بالنَّاسِ و حُسْن القَولِ فيهم.

Translation

The right of the tongue is that you consider it too noble for obscenity, accustom it to good, refrain from any meddling in which there is nothing to be gained, express kindness to the people, and speak well concerning them.

Translation: William C. Chittick — published with the edition, reproduced verbatim.
