BOOK 58

NOTES

Imam Nawawi said: "Be aware that socializing with people in the way I mentioned is the chosen behavior of the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, and all the Prophets, the guided Caliphs, those Companions who came after them, their companions, knowledgeable Muslims and the elite. It is also the doctrine of most of the third generation with which Imams Shaf'i, Ahmad and most jurists, may Allah be pleased with them, inclined."

Attending the Eid Festivals, and the Circles of the Remembrance of Allah, visiting the sick, attending funerals, and sympathizing with the needy; guiding the ignorant and serving them etc., is to be practiced by those who are capable, honoring the good and prohibiting evil, so long as they stop themselves from harming others and are patient when they are harmed.

HUMILITY

Allah, the Exalted says:

“And lower your wing to the believers who follow you.” 26:215 Koran

“Believers, whosoever of you turns from his religion,

Allah will bring a nation whom He loves

and they love Him,

humble towards the believers

and stern towards the unbelievers......” 5:54 Koran

“People, We have created you

from a male and a female,

and made you into nations and tribes

that you might know one another.

The noblest of you

before Allah is the most righteous of you......” 49:13 Koran

“..... Do not praise yourself.

Allah knows the cautious.” 53:32 Koran

“And the Companions of the ramparts

call to men whose marks they recognize:

‘Neither your amassing

nor your pride have availed you.

Are these whom you swore that Allah

would never have mercy upon them?

(To them it will be said:) ‘Enter Paradise.

You have nothing to fear

‘neither will you be saddened.’ 7:48-49 Koran

“... and cooperate in righteousness

and warding off (evil).” 5:2 Koran

There are many other well known verses that convey this meaning.
