| Examples of the Prophet Muhammad’s Sayings |
|
The believers, in their love, mercy, and kindness to one another are like a body: if any part of it is ill, the whole body shares its sleeplessness and fever. The most perfect of the believers in faith are the best of them in morals. And the best among them are those who are best to their wives. The merciful are shown mercy by the All-Merciful. Show mercy to
those on earth, and God will show mercy to you.
God does not judge you according to your appearance and your wealth, but He looks at your hearts and looks into your deeds. Pay the worker his wage before his sweat dries. A man walking along a path felt very thirsty. Reaching a well, he descended into it, drank his fill, and came up. Then he saw a dog with its tongue hanging out, trying to lick up mud to quench its thirst. The man said, “This dog is feeling the same thirst that I felt.” So he went down into the well again, filled his shoe with water, and gave the dog a drink. So, God thanked him and forgave his sins. The Prophet was asked, “Messenger of God, are we rewarded for kindness towards animals?” He said: There is a reward for kindness to every living animal or human. |
"If a man like Muhamed
were to assume the dictatorship of the modern world, he would succeed in
solving its problems that would bring it the much needed peace and happiness."
George Bernard Shaw
