                            Who Are The Real Good and The Real Evil?

                    Respected
                    Self-respecting
                    Not fearing the censure of any censurer

                    Brave
                    Keeps to a moderate course
                    Tolerant
                    Compassionate
                    Honourable
                    Gives glad tidings
                    Happy and fortunate
                    Courteous
                    Speaks graciously to people
                    Decent
                    Virtuous
                    Turns to God alone
                  When those people who lack these attributes of believers
              mentioned in the Qur'an , and on the contrary, adopt wicked

              manners in their conduct, claim that they behave in the name
              of "goodness", state that they are against wrongfulness while
              they do wrong against people, condemn slanderers while
              they themselves slander other people, or claim to be innocent
              and honest while they are definitely fraudulent, provide
              clear signs of their insincerity and hypocrisy.
                  Consequently, someone who is committed to ally himself
              with the good should make a careful examination of all that
              happens around him, and while arriving at a decision, base
              his conclusions on the criteria established by the Qur'an
              rather than what the majority think.
