VAIN TALK

843

“If a person sits with others in which there is vain talk and before leaving supplicates: ‘Exalted are You O Allah, and Yours is the praise: I bear witness that there is none worthy of worship except You; I ask Your forgiveness and turn to You.’ He is forgiven for his participation in that gathering.”

Tirmidhi with a chain up to Abu Hurairah who related that the Holy Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, said this.
