صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب           صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Dear Islamic brothers! You heard the importance of politeness and how much Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ loves politeness. Whichever thing has politeness in it, it becomes beautiful, whereas that person who is deprived of politeness, he always remains angry, scolds people over little things and disgraces and embarrasses people in front of everyone when they make a mistake. No matter how much worship that person carries out, how many Tahajjud he performs, he may fast all year round, no matter if he stands in worship and recitation all night, but if he is of a strict nature and he hurts the feelings of another Muslims for no reason, then on the Day of Judgement, he can be held accountable for these acts. Remember! Whilst in the state of anger, hurting another Muslim and disgracing and embarrassing them in front of people is Haraam and an act that could lead to Hell. Nowadays, in our society, making a joke of someone, (whether in the state of anger or as a joke), disgracing him in front of people, criticising him in abundance and laughing at what he says is not considered a bad act at all. The person being laughed at, many a time, joins in with the rest of the people and laughs with them. In this situation, the cursed devil satisfies everyone that he is also laughing with you, whereas that person is not happy at all. Rather, it could be that he is laughing so that he hides his shame and within, his heart is probably breaking to bits. Therefore, we must refrain from such an act, which could hurt another Muslim and if someone speaks to us in a harsh manner, instead of being angry instantly, we must be polite and try to rectify that person. Let’s listen to a parable with regard to this:

Sweet words

Once, pious person رَحْمَةُ اللهِ عَلَيْه from Khurasan received an order in his dream to invite the people of Tatari towards Islam. At that time, Halaaku’s son Tagudar was the ruler. Hence, the pious person رَحْمَةُ اللهِ عَلَيْه travelled to Tagudar. When he saw the pious person, who had a beard according to Sunnah, he began to joke around and asked, ‘Sir! Tell me, is the hair in your beard better or is the
