Ramadan Day 7: Quran Ayath

And on the Day when He shall gather (resurrect) them together, (it will be) as if they had not stayed (in the life of this world and graves) but an hour of a day.  They will recognise each other.  Ruined indeed will be those who denied the Meeting with Allah and were not guided. -Surah Yunus C10 V45

Backbiting in Islam

"O you who believe! Avoid much suspicion, in deeds some suspicions are sins. And spy not neither backbite one another. Would one of you like to EAT THE FLESH OF HIS DEAD BROTHER? You would hate it (so hate backbiting). And fear Allah, verily, Allah is The One Who accepts repentance, Most Merciful" (Qur'an 49: 12)

This verse resembles a person who backbites to one who eats the flesh of his dead brother.

How does Islam define Backbiting?

Talking about your brother in a manner which he does not like.

What if my backbiting gossip is based on facts ?

If the backbiting is based on facts then it is defined as backbiting. If you are making the things up, then it is slander.

"Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: Do you know what is backbiting? They (the Companions) said: Allah and His Messenger know best. Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: Backbiting implies your talking about your brother in a manner which he does not like. It was said to him: What is your opinion about this that if I actually find (that failing) in my brother which I made a mention of? He said: If (that failing) is actually found (in him) what you assert, you in fact have backbitten him, and if that is not in him it is a slander. "[Sahih Muslim Book 32, #6265]

And truly you have come to Us alone (without wealth, companions or anything else) as We created you the first time. You have left behind you all that which We had bestowed on you.
