Three things forbidden and three disliked

One of them is a way of talking.

إِنَّ اللَّهَ حَرَّمَ عَلَيْكُمْ عُقُوقَ الأُمَّهَاتِ، وَمَنْعَ وَهَاتِ، وَوَأْدَ الْبَنَاتِ، وَكَرِهَ لَكُمْ قِيلَ وَقَالَ

Inna-Llāha ḥarrama ʿalaykum ʿuqūqa-l-ummahāt, wa manʿa wa hāt, wa waʾda-l-banāt, wa kariha lakum qīla wa qāl

Allah has forbidden you undutifulness to mothers, withholding and demanding, and burying daughters alive. And He dislikes for you idle talk,

Where this comes from

And asking too many questions, and wasting wealth. Manʿ wa hāt is two words: refusing to give, and saying give me. It names the person who takes and does not hand over as a single fault with two halves.

The full narration

Narrated Al-Mughira:The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Allah has forbidden you ( 1 ) to be undutiful to your mothers (2) to withhold (what you should give) or (3) demand (what you do not deserve), and (4) to bury your daughters alive. And Allah has disliked that (A) you talk too much about others ( B), ask too many questions (in religion), or (C) waste your property
