Salam from Nabil

Assalamu Alaikom brothers,

 

Hope all is well. Things are good, alhamullilah. My project in Maine recently swiched to a 100% remote model and I've been working from home for the last month... Its cool, but the work hasn't been the most stimulating. But, alhamdullilah, its been convenient and this schedule will hopefully allow me to gain more of the MBA experience these next two months, inshAllah. My spring semester started last Saturday and looks to be interesting (econ and stats classes).

 

So, I attended a AlMagrib seminar on Manners/Code of Conduct and wanted to share some of my favorite hadith on good manners. SubhanAllah, it was amazing to learn the importance/emphasis and high regard of good manners in our deen. 

 

Lets start thinking and planning for our summer trip, iA. Also, it would be great if everyone reminded the next person in the rotation at the end of our email/posts. So, Gerald, you are up.

 

AbudDarda reported, the Prophet (S) said, "There is nothing heavier than good character put in the scale of a believer on the Day of Resurrection." (Narrated by Abu-Dawud)

 

An-Nawwas bin Sam'an (R) reported: I asked the Messenger of Allah (S) about virtue and sin, and he said, "Virtue is noble behavior, and sin is that which creates dobut and you do no like people to know about it." (Narrated by Muslim)

 

Abu Umamah Al-Bahili (R) reported: Messenger of Allah (S) said, "I guarantee a house in Jannah for one who gives up arguing, even if he is in the right; and I guarantee a home in the middle of Jannah for one who abandons lying even for the sake of fun, and I guarantee a house in the highest part of Jannah for one who has good manners. " (Narrated by Abud Dawood)

Abdullah bin 'Amr reported that Allah's Apostle said, 'The best among you are those who have the best manners and character.'  (Narrated by Bhukari)

Narrated 'Abdullah bin Mas'ud: A man came to Allah's Apostle and said, "O Allah's Apostle! What do you say about a man who loves some people but cannot catch up with their good deeds?" Allah's Apostle said, "Everyone will be with those whom he loves." ( Narrated by Bhukari

 

Be safe and take care, brothers. Talk to you all soon, iA.

 

Peace,

Nabil
