Full Shiur: MUSSAR Iggeret HaRAMBAN PART (29) The Torah vs The Satan
• The Torah vs The Satan...
1) The Chafetz Chaim Laws of Lashon Hara 4:7-8 says:
"One is allowed to repeat the wrongdoings of one who was raised in a religious environment and has cast off the yoke of Heaven. The reasoning is simple. If we allow a Rasha to rise up unchecked in our midst and we do not take a stand against the evil, our silence is not counted as righteousness, but as foolishness for allowing a cancer to grow unhindered."
2) Speaking Lashon Hara About a Heretic
The prohibition against speaking Lashon Hara applies when spoken about someone who is considered “amitecha”עמיתך (of your people), namely in observance of Torah and mitzvot. However, regarding those who are recognizably “apikorsim” (heretics), it is a mitzvah (fulfillment of a positive commandment) to disparage and shame them, to their face and behind their back, for everything that one witnesses or hears about them. The Torah states (Lev. 25:17 & Lev. 19:16) “One should not wrong his fellow” and “Do not act as a talebearer among your people,” but heretics do not fit under this category for they do not act as “your people.” Therefore, we follow the practice (as taught in Avot D’Rabbi Natan, a work from the Talmudic era), “those who hate you, L-rd, I will hate, and your rebellious ones I will dispute.” An “apikorus” (heretic) is one who denies the laws and prophecies of Israel, whether the Written Law or Oral Law. Even if he says, “All the Torah is true with the exception of one Scriptural verse, kal v’chomer, g’zeira shava, or one grammatical detail,” he is included in this category. ["Kal v’chomer” and "g’zeira shava” are Talmudic terms for two of the logical principles from which we understand many laws.] even intentionally wish to destroy it.

Rabbi Yaron Reuven explains that suffering is a sign that you are not fulfilling your obligations to learn Torah. He emphasizes that sins, especially those that disconnect you from HaShem, are the root cause of unhappiness. He goes on to explain how studying Torah brings a person closer to HaShem and can even lead to the ability to revive the dead.
He also discusses the importance of fearing HaShem, not just for punishment but also for the sake of the relationship. He argues that fear of HaShem allows a person's prayers to be heard and inspires the world to listen to them. Rabbi Reuven then delves into the consequences of not believing in punishment or reward, arguing that it undermines the entire purpose of Torah and leads to a destructive path.
Finally, he addresses the need to be vigilant against heretics and those who distort Torah teachings. He stresses that it is a mitzvah to speak out against those who spread falsehoods about HaShem, and that a complete understanding of Torah will dispel any confusion about its clear teachings on reward and punishment.
