Ibn al-Qayyim
[may Allaah have Mercy on him] said,
“As for having bad thoughts of others,
then this is defined as one filling his heart with negative perceptions of
others. In turn, this leads to the person who possess bad thoughts of others to
move his tongue and engage in actions in a negative manner based on the false
understanding that he has made for himself. He then backbites, spreads tales,
insults, seeks faults and create enmity towards his adversary. He creates some
to be divided from the rest; some cursing others leading to some warning
against the other. …the victim is then enveloped with harm…and thus the victim
leaves those who defame him having resentment, dis-honesty and enmity towards
them.”
[Kitaab ar-Rooh (1/238)]
