Sanctity of the Believers

In the Name of Allah, Most Merciful, Most Compassionate
Assalaamu alaykum

Dear Friends

I pray that you are well.

The Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and grant him peace) was sent by Allah Most High to evolve moral virtues to highest perfection.

Treating others with respect, love and harmony is an important obligation that many Muslims overlooked. Many Muslims restrict Islam to modes of worship and outer appearance and do not consider one's relationship with fellow family members, friends, other Muslims and humans in general as something to do with Islam.

Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and grant him peace) was asked regarding what is most likely to send people to Paradise? He (Allah bless him and grant him peace) said: 'Fear of Allah (taqwa) and good manners. And he was asked regarding what is most likely to send people to Hellfire? He (Allah bless him and grant him peace) said: 'One's mouth and private parts'. (Tirmidhi and others)

Sayiduna Anas ibn Malik (Allah be pleased with him) narrates that "the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and grant him peace) was the best of people in character." (Bukhari and Muslim)

Sayyiduna Abd Allah ibn Amr (Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and grant him peace) said: 'Nearest to me among you are those who have the best manners.' (Bukhari)

One of the places that the people of Allah are most sensitive to is the feelings of other people.

Sayiduna Abdullah ibn Umar Al-Khattab one day looked at the Ka'aba and said, "You have an immense sanctity, but by Allah, the sanctity of the believer is greater than you."

Hurting the feelings of a believer is more serious in the sight of Allah than tearing the Ka'aba rock by rock, a powerful metaphor, if you think about it.

May Allah protect our limbs from hurting others or making people feel bad. Ameen.

Please don't forget us in your night prayers. Jazakallahu khairan.

And Allah knows best.
Wassalaam
