Say NO To Lashon Hara Day 16
from Say NO To Lashon Hara · host Shlomo Farhi
The Hafez Chaim discusses a situation where people are talking negatively about someone that a powerful person already hates. Instead of fueling the fire and adding more negativity, try finding something good about that person or calming the situation by identifying with their deeds. Flattery is often the cause of Lashon Hara. If someone else is speaking negatively about someone, it's ideal to defend the accused and not add any words or facial expressions that could indicate agreement. Otherwise, it's considered flattery and a sin.
