9- Slander excludes man from God's protection andincludes him in Satan's protection

As it is narrated from Imam Sadegh A. S. in the tradition ofMofzal Ebne Omar:

«مَنْ رَوى‌ عَلى‌ مُؤْمِنٍ رِوايَةً يُرِيدُ بِها شَيْنَهُ وَ هَدْمَ مُرُوَّتِهِ لِيَسْقُطَ مِنْ اعْيُنِ النّاسِ اخْرَجَهُ اللَّهُ مِنْ ولايَتِهِ الى‌ ولايَةِ الشَّيْطانِ فَلا يَقْبَلُهُ الشَّيْطانُ» ..

One who narrates with the purpose of backbiting anddishonoring a believer to be reproached before people, God shall evict him from His protection to Satan's protection, and Satan too does not accept him.. [1]

Of course, this tradition is not merely concerned withslander. Rather, slander is one of its senses, because the purpose of slander in all individuals is destroying character of the other party and caviling at him, even indirectly.

But exclusion from God's protection according to theQuranic verses indicates that God, who leads and supervise sbelievers and guides them from darkness into the light

[2]،

not lead such people anymore. Because protector means guideand leader as well as helper and assistant, as we read:.

وَ ما كانَ لَهُمْ مِنْ اوْلِياءَ يَنْصُرُونَهُمْ مِن دُونِ اللَّهِ‌ ..

They have no protectors to help them, apart from God.. [3]

And it is also mentioned in the sense of savior fromhumiliation as we read:.

وَ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ شَرِيكٌ فِي الْمُلْكِ وَ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ وَلِيٌّ مِنَ الذُّلِ‌ ..

Who has not any associate in the Kingdom, nor any protector
