Ramadan: What are the Islamic rules about treating others?

That was terrible indeed, typical hadithist attitude.

Allah has honoured the Children of Adam [17:70]. All human beings are the Children of Adam. So, all human beings must be treated with honour, respect and regard, without distinction of any kind, such as the colour of their skin, their race, line of descent, social background, national origin, gender, age, language, religion, political or other opinion, education, occupation, job, wealth, property or any other status.

The most honoured is the one who is the best in Taqwa [49:13] i.e.

- the one who best follows the Right Guidance [47:17, 39:28], the Straight and the Balanced Path [6:153] and best complies with the Laws and Commands of Allah, with humility and submissiveness, in all walks of life [2:21]

- the one who has conviction in Allah and the Last Day and the Angels and the Book and the Prophets, and gives his wealth that he loves, to: family and relatives; orphans; widows; those left helpless in the society; those whose hard-earned income fails to meet their basic needs; those whose running businesses have stalled; those who have lost their jobs; whose life has stalled for any reason; the disabled; the needy wayfarer, son of the street, the homeless, the one who travels to him for assistance; those who ask for help, and those whose necks are burdened with any kind of bondage, oppression, crushing debts and extreme hardship of labour [2:177]

- the one who strives to establish the Divine System of Salat, and set up the Just Economic Order of Zakat; the one who is true to his promises whenever he makes a promise; the one who remains steadfast and keeps constancy with the Divine Law in physical or emotional distress and in times of peril [2:177]

- the one who keeps his wealth open for mankind in favourable as well as in adverse circumstances; who diverts and sublimates his anger and potentially virulent emotions to creative energy, and becomes a source of tranquility and comfort to people; who pardons people gracefully; who quickly corrects any wrong or indecency that has occurred from him; who stays mindful of (the Laws of) Allah, protects himself from trailing behind in dignity, and refrains from willfully persisting in error. [3:133-135]

Respect and honour all human beings irrespective of their religion, colour, race, sex, language, status, property, birth, profession/job and so on [17/70]

Do not make mockery of others or ridicule others [49/11]

Do not defame others [49/11]

Avoid suspicion and guesswork. Suspicion and guesswork might

deplete your communal energy [49/12]

Do not backbite one another [49/12]

Do no try to impress people on account of self-proclaimed virtues [53/32]

You should enjoin right conduct on others but mend your own ways first. Actions speak louder than words. You must first practice good deeds yourself, then preach [2/44]

Correct yourself and your families first [before trying to correct others] [66/6]

Divert and sublimate your anger and potentially virulent emotions to creative energy, and become a source of tranquillity and comfort to people [3/134]

Call people to the Way of your Lord with wisdom and beautiful exhortation. Reason with them most decently [16/125]

As a muslim I have been taught ''good character/manners is the completion of deen(religion)''

I disagree with those who are rudely spoken. Islam doesn't teach us that. I'm sorry you havn't got a good impression of muslims.

I would like to add you can't judge Islam on its followers. See for yourself what it teaches.

Its like watching someone drive a beeaoooooootiful car, reaaaly Badly. I'm sure You won't judge the quality of the car on the driving skills of the driver!

Muslims are not Islam

there is only 4% of the Muslim that are mummins.

I never did see or hear a woman do anything wrong she didn't learn from some retard man on this earth first.

Once again, there is an entire surah dedicated to how to treat others, Surah al-Hujurat. In summary, everyone is to be treated fairly with justice, whether Muslim or not. Those who cause fitnah should be given their punishment that fits the crime, or they are to be ignored.

Read/Listen to Surah al-Hujurat here:

juvegirl, i'm pretty sure you're smart enough to know that amdoo is most certainly NOT a representative of Muslims

i know he's mean, but honestly this question is disappointing

it's so typical of society to take the worst example as a representative of Islam

seriously...i did not think you were typical

peace

Sura Kafiroon

Quran 109:1] Say : O you that reject Faith!

109:2] I worship not that which ye worship,

109:3] Nor will ye worship that which I worship.

109:4] And I will not worship that which ye have been wont to worship,

109:5] Nor will ye worship that which I worship.

109:6] To you be your Way, and to me mine.

Islam highly regards relationships between muslims and other people.

It is unworthy of a Mu'min [a person with faith] to injure people's reputations; and it is unworthy to curse any one; and it is unworthy to abuse any one; and it is unworthy of a Mu'min to talk arrogantly.

You will not enter paradise until you have faith; and you will not complete your faith, till you love one another !!

Love and hate is for the sake of Allaah. As Muslims, we are to love what Allaah loves, and to hate what Allaah hates. So, Allaah loves belief, and he loves the believers - so we are to love them also. Also hates disbelief, and hates the disbelievers - so we are to hate them also. Allaah hates that people lie and corrupt his religion - so as Muslims we are to hate this also

Please note, as some people may extrapolate from what has been mentioned, that hating something does not negate justice. For example, the fact that we as Muslims are to hate the disbelievers does not mean that we are to deal with them injustly; on the contrary, this is not allowed. A specific example of this may be in business dealings. It is not allowed to cheat another in business dealings, whether Muslim or otherwise

'Reem': One of the nullifiers of Islaam is not believing that the mushrikeen are kuffaar. Whoever believes that is a kaafir like them

I totally agree with the answer of "Wazgud". I always suspected & expected the same from you. I still respect you as Qur'an commands us to.

Finally, you landed up with your typical question.

Edit: It is said: One shud look at the positive side of things BUT you choose negativity.

Truth Hurts..............Ouch. !!
