Merit of Morals

To show good behavior is a sign of intellectual maturity and psychological serenity which Islam deems essential and as significant as is worship itself. It, therefore, instructs its followers to adopt, when dealing with others, an approach of righteousness enough to spare them harm. Islam considers a smiling face towards people to be a great category of alms-giving. It also orders the softened speech, the good way to argue and forgive offenders be of the lofty virtues. It urges Muslims to exchange gifts with others, give charity and show good discipline even to Non-Muslims. It, furthermore, motivates its followers to be of good company to them, guide them, visit them when sick and congratulate them on happy occasions. A Muslim is ordained to express gratitude to any who has done him a favor . For the Messenger of God, peace be upon him, said: “He who has done you a favor is to be rewarded.” Islam supports the urge to suppress abuse by outstretching gratefulness and confront injustices with justice and patience. A wife is given by Islam the right to be dealt with justly as well as children with mercy and compassion. Allah, the Almighty, says: ".......And treat them fairly......" Islam, thus, views those of benefit to people as the most highly beloved ones in the sight of Allah; whereas the most preferable acts are those which render others pleased and cheerful. In general, Islam recommends kindness be on top of all issues.

Abu Hurairah, radiyallahu ’anhu, reported that the Messenger of Allah, sallallahu ’alayhi wasallam, said: \”Do not be envious of one another; do not artificially inflate prices against one another; do not hate one another; do not shun one another; and do not undercut one another in business transactions; and be as fellow-brothers and servants of Allah. A Muslim is the brother of a Muslim. He neither oppresses him nor humiliates him nor looks down upon him. Piety is here - and he pointed to his chest three times. It is evil enough for a Muslim to hold his brother Muslim in contempt. All things of a Muslim are inviolable for another Muslim: his blood, his property and his honour.\” [Muslim]

It was narrated on the authority of Abu Najih al-Irbad bin Sariyah, radiyallahu ’anhu, who said: The Messenger of Allah, sallallahu ’alayhi wasallam, delivered an admonition that made our hearts fearful and our eyes tearful. We said, \”O Messenger of Allah, it is as if this were a farewell sermon, so advise us.\” He said, \”I enjoin you to have Taqwa of Allah and that you listen and obey, even if a slave is made a ruler over you. He among you who lives long enough will see many differences. So for you is to observe my Sunnah and the Sunnah of the rightly-principled and rightly-guided successors, holding on to them with your molar teeth. Beware of newly-introduced matters, for every innovation (bid’ah) is an error.\” [Abu Dawud & Al-Tirmidhi, who says it is an authentic hadith]

Al-Nawwas bin Sam’an, radiyallahu ’anhu, reported that the Prophet, sallallahu ’alayhi wasallam, said: \”Righteousness is good character, and sin is that which wavers in your heart and which you do not want people to know about.\” [Muslim] According to Wabisah bin Ma’bad, radiyallahu ’anhu, who said: I came to the Messenger of Allah, sallallahu ’alayhi wasallam, and he said: \”You have come to ask about righteousness ?\” \” Yes,\” I answered. He said: \”Consult your heart. Righteousness is that about which the soul feels tranquil and the heart feels tranquil, and sin is what creates restlessness in the soul and moves to and fro in the breast, even though people give you their opinion (in your favour) and continue to do so.\”

Abu Hurairah, radiyallahu ’anhu, reported that a man said to the Prophet, sallallahu ‘alayhi wasallam: \”Advise me! \”The Prophet said, \”Do not become angry and furious.\” The man asked (the same) again and again, and the Prophet said in each case, \”Do not become angry and furious.\” [Al-Bukhari; Vol. 8 No. 137]

On the authority of Abu Hurairah, radiyallahu ’anhu, who said : The Messenger of Allah, sallallahu ’alayhi wasallam, said : \”Part of the perfection of someone’s Islam is his leaving alone that which does not concern him.\” Hadith hasan - Recorded by Tirmidhi]
