Ramadan: Brothers & Sisters, what does it mean to be bankrupt?

the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) once asked his Companions, "Do you know who is the bankrupt?" They said, "A bankrupt person is the one who has neither dirham (money) nor wealth." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "The bankrupt person among my followers (Ummah ) is the one who would come on the Day of Judgment with Prayers, fasting, and zakah; but would have offended one person, slandered another, devoured others' wealth, shed the blood of this person, and hit that person." (Muslim)

Maybe we should all think twice before we offend another person.

Notice how he never said only to Muslims.

We will all be held accountable for every single word we say.

Be wise, in the words we use.

Update:

lol Idil ,I had a feeling some of you would think that. lol :D

But it at least got people to read it, which was my goal.
