The Prophet :saw: said, "The most beloved to me and the closest to me on the Day of Resurrection will be those of you who have the best attitudes. And the hateful to me and the furthest from me on the Day of Resurrection will be the thartharoon, al-mutashaddiqoon and al-mutafayhiqoon." The Sahabah (RA) said, "O' Messenger of Allah, we understand thartharoon and al-mutashaddiqoon, so who are the al-mutafayhiqoon?" The Prophet :saw: said, "Those who arrogant in their speech." [Sunan at-Tirmidhi]
thartharoon: means those who talk a lot.
al-mutashaddiqoon: means those who put on their speech, who effectuate their speech, they talk in a way that they wouldn't normally but they do it to impress i.e. they speak in an accent which they don't normally do

The Prophet :saw: said, "He who believes in Allah and the final Day, let him not hurt and inconvenience his neighbour.He who believes in Allah and the final Day, let him honour his guest that is the sign of the person's Iman. He who believes in Allah and the final Day, let him say something good otherwise let him remain silent."
The Prophet :saw:, "A believer does not become a perfect believer until he abandons lying, even as a joke. Until he gives up arguing and debating even if he may be upon the truth and he may be right."
The Prophet :saw: said, "...fasting is a shield therefore, when one of you is fasting on a particular day, let him not speak offensively let him not shout abusively. If someone swears at him or abuses him, or argues with him, then let him simply say, 'I am a man who is fasting!'"
The Prophet :saw: said, "He who withholds his tongue, Allah (SWT) will conceal his faults."
A companion of the prophet :saw: asked, "O' Prophet! What is salvation? How can I be saved?" He :saw: said, "Withhold your tongue, withhold your tongue and let your house confine you and weep over your sins. If you do these three things, that these are means of salvation."

The Prophet :saw: said, "Solitude is far better than bad company and good company is far better than solitude. To say something good, is better than to remain silent but remaining silent is far better than saying something evil."
The Prophet :saw: said, "The one who remained silent, has saved himself."

Sufyan ibn 'AbdiLlah (RA) said, "I asked the Prophet :saw:, 'O' Prophet of Allah, tell me something that I can adhere to!' The Prophet :saw: replied, 'Say, 'I believe in Allah and remain firm and steadfast upon that.'' I then asked, 'O' Prophet of Allah, 'What do you fear for me the most?'' He :saw: didn't reply in words. He :saw: took hold of his own tongue and said, 'This is what I fear the most for you!'
Abu Ayoub (RA) narrates that a man approached the Prophet :saw: and said, "O' Prophet of Allah, give me some advice and be brief." He :saw: said, "When you stand up to pray the Salah, perform the Salah of a departing person. Do not say anything for which you have to apologise tomorrow and convince yourself and despair of the possessions people have."
Mu'adh ibn Jabal (RA) narrates, "One day we were travelling and I managed to get close to the Prophet :saw: on my mount and I said to him, 'O' Prophet of Allah, tell me something which will distance me from the fire of Hell and which will take me to Jannah.' The Prophet :saw: said, 'O' Mu'adh, indeed you have asked for a great thing, one thing that will save you from the fire of Hell and take you to Jannah. O' Mu'adh you have asked a great thing but surely it easy for those whom Allah will make it easy.' Then the Prophet :saw: said, 'Worship Allah in such a way that you do not commit any shirk with him. Establish Salah, give Zakah, fast in the month of Ramadan and perform the Hajj of the House of Allah.' Then the Prophet :saw: continued and said, 'O' Mu'adh, should I not tell you of the doors of all good? Fasting for it is a shield, Sadaqah for it extinguishes one's sins as water extinguishes the fire and praying Salah in the darkness of the night.' Then he :saw: recited the verses, 'These true servants of Allah, they are those whose sides are kept away from their beds at night. They plead with their Lord and pray to Him, both, in hope and out of fear and what We have bestowed upon on them of that, they spend. For such people, non of these souls knows the good reward and the coolness of eyes that has been prepared for them in the Aakhirah as a reward for the good that they used to do.' Then the Prophet :saw: continued and said, 'O' Mu'adh, should I not inform of you of the foundation of religion, of the pillar of religion, of the peak of religion? O' Mu'adh, tthe foundation of religion is Islam, the pillar of religion is Salah and the peak of religion is Jihad. But O' Mu'adh, should I not inform you of something that encompasses of all of this?' I said, 'Why not O' Prophet of Allah?' He :saw: took hold of his tongue and said, 'The thing which encompasses of all these deeds is that you withhold your tongue, is that you withhold your tongue!' I said, 'O' Prophet of Allah, will we be held to account for our tongues utter?' The Prophet :saw: said, 'May your mother lose you, O' Mu'adh, do you not realise is there anything else which throws people flat onto their faces in the fire of Jahannam, expect the harvest of their tongues!'"
Husayn ibn 'Ali (RA) quotes that the Prophet :saw: said, "Part of a person's being a good Muslim, is that he speaks very little about the things that do not concern him."
Once 'Isa ibn Maryam (AS) was walking along the path and he had his companions with him and a pig was standing there by the road. So he (AS) addressed the pig and said to the pig, "You may walk across the path and do not fear no harm shall come to you." So, one of his companions said, "O' 'Isa ibn Maryam, do you say something like this to a pig?" So, 'Isa ibn Maryam (AS) said, "I only say good because I fear unless I say good, I will give my tongue the habit of speaking evil." [Muwatta' Imam Malik]
