44. Mohammad, God's messenger said, "Avoid the seven deadly sins." The people enquired, "O God's Messenger, what are they?" He said, "(1) To join others in worship along with Allāh, (2) to practise sorcery, (3) to kill a person which Allāh has forbidden except for a just cause (according to Islâmic law), (4) to consume Ribâ (usury), (5) to consume an orphan’s wealth, (6) to show one’s back to the enemy and fleeing from the battlefield at the time of fighting for the Cause of God, (7) and to accuse chaste women (or men) of adultery, who never even think of anything touching their chastity and are true believers".
