"Bismillaah wal-Hamdulilaah, was-Salaatu was-Salaamu 'alaa Rasoolillaah" . "As Salaamu 'Alaykum wa Rahmatullaahi wa Barakatuh" The Flavor of the Heart. [Imaam Ibnul-Qayyim] rahimahullah said:- If you would like to draw a conclusion of what is contained in someone's Heart then use as a proof the movements of his Tongue! for surely, he will show you what is contained in his heart regardless of whether he wants to or not. Yahyaa Ibn Mu'aadh said:- The hearts are like pots. They boil with that which they contain and their tongues are their ladles [i.e. scooping spoons]. So look at a man when he speaks. His tongue will scoop out for you that which is contained in his heart, whether it is Sweet or Bitter, Fresh or Salty and other than that. And the flavor of his heart will become clear to you from that which his tongue scoops out. This means that just as you can taste the flavor of foods being cooked with your tongue and you realize the true flavor of them, Similarly you can taste what is in a man's heart by way of his Tongue, [in the same manner that you can taste what is in the pot with your tongue].
