without knowledge and follows every rebellious satan.
(Surat al-Hajj: 3)
Finally, an argument is a violent and unhappy exchange
between a person who has fallen into difficulty and those
who put him in that situation. This is the style of communi-

the Qur’an.
Arguing does not befit believers, and their respect and
love for another precludes it. They do not argue with unbe-
lievers, but speak with them only to communicate religion
and while doing this they employ the most efficient and
beautiful style.
