Jami' at-Tirmidhi 2616

Translation

I was with the Prophet ﷺ on a journey, and one morning I found myself close to him while we were traveling. I said, "O Messenger of Allah, inform me of a deed that will admit me into Paradise and keep me far from the Fire." He said: "You have asked me about a great matter, yet it is easy for one for whom Allah makes it easy: (1) you worship Allah and do not associate anything with Him, (2) you establish prayer, (3) you give zakah, (4) you fast Ramadan, and (5) you perform Hajj to the House." Then he said: "Shall I not direct you to the gates of goodness? (1) Fasting is a shield, (2) charity extinguishes sin just as water extinguishes fire, and (3) a man's prayer in the depths of the night." He said: Then he recited, "Their sides draw away from their beds," until he reached, "what they used to do." Then he said: "Shall I not inform you of the head of the whole matter, its pillar, and the peak of its hump?" I said, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." He said: "The head of the matter is Islam, its pillar is prayer, and the peak of its hump is jihad." Then he said: "Shall I not inform you of what holds all of that together?" I said, "Yes, O Prophet of Allah." He said: He took hold of his tongue and said: "Restrain this for yourself." I said, "O Prophet of Allah, will we really be taken to account for what we speak?" He said: "May your mother lose you, O Muadh! Does anything throw people into the Fire on their faces" or "on their noses except the harvests of their tongues?"
