  2. It hurts the people on whom the slander is directed to leading to hostilities between people of the same religion, community, house e.t.c.
  3. It encourages dishonesty and creates hatred and enmity in the society.
  4. It leads to defamation of noble character e.g. lady Aisha.
  5. It causes disunity, conflicts among members of the same community.
  6. It is against the teachings of Islam and Allah hates those who engaged in this vice hence will lead to hell fire.
  7. Spoils people’s reputation and can lead to loss of trust, jobs,livelihood/lowers dignity.
  8. Can lead to marriage breakup due to suspicion and false rumours.
