The Chafetz Chaim wrote a book called Sefer Chafetz Chaim, which consists of two parts – laws of Lashon Harah and laws of Rechilut. He sourced these laws from various parts of the Talmud, Halacha, and poskim. The name Chafetz Chaim comes from the verse that states "a person who desires life should guard their tongue from speaking evil." The book is divided into two parts – the practical application of Halacha and where the laws originated from. The Chafetz Chaim emphasized the importance of being precise and sourcing everything he said to prevent people from thinking it was just a mitzvah for righteous individuals. Lashon Hara is significant, and the punishment for it is severe, making it essential to be careful when speaking. A person's tongue, when used properly, can become a source of life and blessing.
