The answer

Allah has forbidden the spread of indecency among believers, and even the love of its spread. He has threatened those who love such a thing with a painful punishment in this world and the Hereafter, because it leads to moral corruption and leniency towards sins. Allah Almighty says: "Indeed, those who like that indecency should be spread among those who have believed - for them is a painful punishment in this world and the Hereafter." (An-Nur: 19). And the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, forbade harming Muslims with the tongue or hand. Some of the Salaf mentioned that preoccupation with the faults of others leads to people mentioning your faults.
