The Prophet ﷺ said,
“When death was approaching the Prophet Nuh عليه السلام, he said to his son,
‘I will narrate to you my bequest; I command you with two things and prohibit you from two things.
I command you with La ilaha illAllah (‘There is none worthy of worship in truth except Allaah),
if the seven heavens and the seven earths were placed upon a scale and La ilaha illAllah was placed on the other, then La ilaha illAllah would be heavier.
If the seven heavens and the seven earths were a closed off circle then La ilaha illAllah would be able to break it.
The second thing I command you with is Subhana Allaahi wa bihamdihi because it is a supplication for everything, and by it the creation is given its provision, and I prohibit you from shirk and pride.’”
[Al Silsila As Sahiha, 3130]
I can’t stress this enough.
When you deliberately choose to not make a statement,your message becomes clear.

Sometimes u just need to stay quiet, not because u don't have anything to say, but because u just don't want ur words to get wasted..
