صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب              صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Dear Islamic sisters! Have you heard! Muslims in the past used to be very Allah-fearing. Due to the fear of Allah Almighty, the fortunate young man immediately went to his aunt and reconciled with her. All Islamic sisters should think who they are angry with in their families. When they discover, they should immediately reconcile with their displeased Mahram relatives provided that there is no Shar’i reason. If you have to show humility to them, so do it for the pleasure of Allah Almighty. اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ you will get eminence. The Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has said, مَنْ تَوَاضَعَ لِلّٰہِ رَفَعَہُ اللّٰہُ i.e. One who becomes humble for Allah Almighty, Allah Almighty bestows eminence upon him. (Shu’ab-ul-Iman, vol. 6, pp. 276, Hadees 8140) An excellent way of attaining the Madani thought to treat relatives well is also to associate yourself with Dawat-e-Islami, the Madani movement of devotees of Rasool.

2. Congratulation to the one who treats his parents well as Allah Almighty increases his age. (Al-Mustadrak, vol. 5, pp. 213, Hadees 7339)

٭ Treating relatives well is Wajib and breaking off relations without any reason is Haraam and an act leading to Hell. (Bahar-e-Shari’at, vol. 3, pp. 558)

٭ Treating relatives well does not mean that when they treat you well, you treat them well too. It is in fact called reciprocation, that is, when he
