When we have been entrusted with a secret of another person


‎"When we have been entrusted with a secret of another person we should never divulge it to others as this would be a breach of trust which is a major sin. Many people think that they can use a password after which they let out people's secrets. That is "don't tell anyone but....". This is becoming very common. This having been said, we must be very careful not to confide in people unless they are really trustworthy and there is a need to let them know our secrets. Most of those who think their secrets are safe would be surprised to know how, at times secrets spread faster than common news and are let out by those whom we would never believe would do so. Don't trust others easily and don't itch to tell."

- Mufti Isma'il Menk
