The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, “Do not indulge in excessive talk except when remembering Allah.

Excessive talking without the Remembrance of Allah hardens the heart; and those who are the farthest from Allah are those whose hearts are hard.

Reference:

وعن ابن عمر رضي الله عنهما قال‏: ‏ قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم‏: ‏ ‏ “‏لا تكثروا الكلام بغير ذكر الله، فإن كثرة الكلام بغير ذكر الله تعالى قسوة للقلب‏!‏ وإن أبعد الناس من الله القلب القاسي‏”‏‏.‏ رواه الترمذي‏.‏

Ibn ‘Umar (May Allah be pleased with them) reported: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, “Do not indulge in excessive talk except when remembering Allah. Excessive talking without the Remembrance of Allah hardens the heart; and those who are the farthest from Allah are those whose hearts are hard.” [At-Tirmidhi]
