Principle 68 — Lack of Gentleness

English · 1 min read

Lack of Gentleness

The Prophet of Islam said, “He who is deprived of gentleness is deprived of every good.” (Sunan Abu Dawud, Hadith No. 4809) This tradition explains a comprehensive moral principle: observing kindness in dealing with others.

original + quoteOriginal text with a quotation or mention inside it

One who adopts the way of gentleness will always be successful in every matter, for no one is an enemy of such a person. On the contrary, if a person does not show leniency in dealing with others, everything will go wrong because everyone will complain about him. He will have to live amongst enemies and adversaries. He will be involved in unnecessary problems both inside and outside the house.
