Backbiting and Slandering are Major Sins in Islam? – Dr Zakir Naik

Can you tell us the ruling Islamic ruling regarding slandering and backbiting.
Allah says in the Quran in Surah Al Hujuraat chapter number 49 verse number 12. that do not spy, avoid spying for in most cases, spying is a sin, do not backbite, do not speak ill about other people behind the back, are you ready to eat the flesh of your dead brother? no you would abhor it that means if you back by it Allah says in the Quran it is like eating the Flesh of your dead brother, and would you like it and the answer is no.

Eating your brother itself is Haram eating dead meat is a double sin even the cannibals who eat human being they don’t eat the red meat of their own brother the Quran says that backbiting is equivalent to eating the dead meat of your own brother.
