preacher does not have to face any specific trouble during his individual effort. Sinners are privileged to repent of their sins and non-Muslims are privileged to embrace Islam by virtue of the blessing of the individual effort of a well-mannered preacher. A well-mannered preacher can eliminate hatred and develop a peaceful and loving environment. A well-mannered preacher can re-unite the separated. A well-mannered preacher can remove distance and bring people closer in a peaceful and pleasant environment.

In short, good manners bring about abundant advantages. Therefore, we should adopt gentleness and well-manners. However, we should remember that it is not necessary if we meet someone smilingly, he will also welcome us cheerfully in return, but rather it is possible that the one we are talking to becomes angry considering our smile to be a taunt and behaves badly towards us. Thus on such occasion this commandment of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ be kept in mind. It is stated in Ayah 34 of Surah Haa-Meem As-Sajdah, part 24:

وَ لَا تَسْتَوِی الْحَسَنَةُ وَ لَا السَّیِّئَةُؕ-اِدْفَعْ بِالَّتِیْ هِیَ اَحْسَنُ فَاِذَا الَّذِیْ بَیْنَكَ وَ بَیْنَهٗ عَدَاوَةٌ كَاَنَّهٗ وَلِیٌّ حَمِیْمٌ(۳۴)

Translation from Kanz-ul-Iman: And the good deed and the evil deed will never be equal; O listener! Repel the evil (deed) with one which is better, thereupon the one between whom and you was enmity, (at that time he) will become like a close friend.

Telling about the method of responding evil with goodness, ‘Allamah Maulana Sayyid Mufti Muhammad Na’eemuddin Muradabadi رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه has said: For example, anger with patience, ignorance with forbearance, bad behaviour with forgiveness; if someone does wrong with you, you forgive him. As a result of this habit, your enemy will love you like your friends. (Khaza`in-ul-‘Irfan, pp. 884)

تُو نرمی کو اپنانا جھگڑے مٹانا                  رہے گا سدا خُوشنُما مَدَنی ماحول

تُو غُصّے جھڑکنے سے بچنا وگرنہ    یہ بد نام ہوگا تِرا مَدَنی ماحول
