Laghw

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In Islamic context, Laghw means "evil vain talk", vain, dirty, false, falsehood, nonsensical, meaningless and anything forbidden by Allah. It refers to anything which serves no purpose or goal in a proper Muslim life.

According to the Al-Furqan Sura (chapter) of the Qur'an, Muslims are to avoid such things and pay them no mind; "... if they pass by some evil play or evil talk, they pass by it with dignity".
