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)
