             REFRAIN FROM SPEAKING ILL OF OTHERS OR
             USING HURTFUL, SHARP LANGUAGE,
             A CHARACTERISTIC OF IDOLATERS AND
             HYPOCRITES

             God does not like evil words being voiced out loud, except in the
             case of someone who has been wronged. God is All-Hearing, All-
             Knowing. (Surat an-Nisa’, 148)
             If they come upon you, they will be your enemies and stretch out
             their hands and tongues against you with evil intent, and they
             would dearly love you to become disbelievers. (Surat al-Mumtahi-
             nah, 2)
             …but when the fear is gone they smite you with sharp tongues,

             being niggardly of the good things. These have not believed, there-
             fore God has made their doing naught; and this is easy to God.
             (Surat al-Ahzab,19)
             You will be tested in your wealth and in yourselves and you will hear
             many abusive words from those given the Book before you and from
             those who are idolaters. But if you are steadfast and guard against

             evil, that is the most resolute course to take. (Surah Al ‘Imran, 186)
             and do not chide the one who asks for help. (Surat ad-Dhuha, 10)
             Your Lord has decreed that you should worship none but Him, and
             that you should show kindness to your parents. Whether one or
             both of them reach old age with you, do not say ‘Ugh!’ to them out
             of irritation and do not be harsh with them but speak to them with
             gentleness and generosity. (Surat al-Isra’, 23)


             ALWAYS MAINTAINING A COMPASSIONATE AND
             LENIENT DEMEANOR
             Ibrahim was forbearing, compassionate, penitent. (Surah Hud, 75)
