Some morals to live by…for all human beings
- It is not permissible for a man to keep apart from his brother for more than 3 days
- The believers whose faith is most perfect are those who have the best
character
- Modesty and faith are both companions: when one is taken away the other is taken
- There are two favours of which many people are unmindful: health of body and calmness of mind
- Do not consider any kindness insignificant, even meeting your brother with a cheerful face (every act of kindness is charity)
- A good word is better than silence and silence is better than evil talks
- Pleasing your parents is to attain Allah’s pleasure and disobedience to your parents is expressing disobedience to Allah
- Paradise lies under the feet of thy mother
