Safeguarding and Minding One's Language

abdullah b. abi o'faa, with whom allah is pleased, said that the messenger of allah, may allah exalt his mention, would busy himself with the remembrance of allah; he would not talk in vain. he would lengthen his prayers and shorten the speech, and he would not hesitate to help and take care of the needs of a needy, poor or widow.  (ibn hib'ban #6423)
