Imām Ibn al-Qayyim (رحمه الله) said in al-Wābil as-Sayyib (166-167):
"The tongue does not keep quiet at all. It is either a tongue that remembers or a tongue that is senseless and it has to be one of these two.
It is the (nature of the) soul; if you do not preoccupy it with truth, it will occupy you with falsehood. It is the (nature of the) heart; if you do not accommodate it with love of Allāh, it will dwell with love of creation and this is a certain reality. It is the (nature of the) tongue; if you do not preoccupy it with remembrance, it will most definitely occupy you with foolishness.
Thus, choose for your own self one of the two courses."
