“ Every act of goodness is Charity [sadaqa] ”
Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ)
Muslim 1005
One of the most beloved qualities of good character to Allah is kindness and gentleness. Allah has reserved a special reward for those who are kind and gentle.
Allah loves kindness and gentleness in all matters, so we should manifest these qualities even when we face abuse and cruelty. On one occasion, the Prophet was insulted and cursed by his enemies but he did not return their curse. Rather, he showed patience and forbearance and encouraged his companions to be kind.
Small acts of kindness, although it might be trivial in the eyes of people, are an important means for us to be saved from Hellfire and admitted into Paradise.
we should train ourselves to be kind and gentle in all matters, among the Muslims, among unbelievers, and even with the animals.
May Allah beautify our manners with kindness and to protect us from falling into harshness.
Ameen.
