avoidance of fault-finding & backbiting

Remember, above all, the teaching of Bahá'u'lláh concerning gossip and unseemly talk about others. Stories repeated about others are seldom good. A silent tongue is the safest. Even good may be harmful, if spoken at the wrong time, or to the wrong person. 
(Abdu'l-Baha, from a talk, ‘Abdu'l-Baha in London’)
