Kashf al-riba an ahkam al-ghiba of Shahid Thani

One cannot divorce the act of ghiba from its deeper moral implications. Shahid Thani posits that engaging in this behavior not only tarnishes the reputation of the individual being spoken about but also erodes the spiritual standing of the perpetrator. This duality of harm underscores the intricate connection between personal behavior and communal morality that is prevalent within Shia Islam.
