Gossip/Slander - לָשׁוֹן הָרָע

Lashon Harah
About this Badge:

לָשׁוֹן הָרָע — harmful speech damages trust, dignity, and relationships even when the words themselves are true. Torah teaches that words carry spiritual weight, shaping communities and revealing character, and therefore speech must be guided with restraint, sensitivity, and responsibility.
