Question:
Hello,
My question is: Is it possible to speak lashon hara during personal prayer (hitbodedut)? If sometimes I speak about other people to G-d so that I can try to get clarity on how He wants me to behave, can this be lashon hara (For example: if “negative” information is said about someone to G-d for a “positive” goal, i.e. that I get clarity on how to serve G-d better, keep the mitzvahs better, etc.) is this lashon hara?
Thank you for taking the time to answer this question, I sincerely appreciate it.
D
Answer:
When praying to Hashem you can speak about other people and no problem of lashon hara.
