PODHADITH: BECOMING THE BEST – PART 2 OF 2

The last blog was discussing a Hadith found in Jami At Tirmidhi, number 2305.

The next thing mentioned in this Hadith is that the sign of a true believer is being kind to one’s neighbour. The Holy Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, once connected belief in Allah, the Exalted, and Judgment Day to treating a neighbour kindly. This is confirmed in a Hadith found in Sahih Muslim, number 174. This Hadith alone is enough to indicate the seriousness of failing to treat neighbours kindly. A Hadith found in Imam Bukhari’s, Adab Al Mufrad, number 119, warns that a woman who fulfilled her obligatory duties and offered much voluntary worship would go to Hell because she mistreated her neighbours through her speech. If this is the case for the one who harms their neighbour through words can one imagine the seriousness of physically harming one’s neighbour?

The next thing mentioned in the main Hadith under discussion is that a true muslim loves for others what they love for themself. It is important to show this practically not just declare it through words. A muslim must strive to aid others according to their means, such as emotional and physical help, just like they desire others to help them. This will cause them to obtain the support of Allah, the Exalted, which has been advised in a Hadith found in Sunan Ibn Majah, number 225. The same way a muslim would like their self and possessions to be safe from the verbal and physical harm of others, which is a characteristic of a  true believer according to a Hadith found in Sunan An Nasai, number 4998, a muslim must treat others in the same way.

The last thing mentioned in the main Hadith under discussion is that too much laughter kills the spiritual heart. This mentality demands one to always think and discuss funny issues and avoid serious issues. The matter of preparing for death and the hereafter are serious issues and if one avoids thinking about and discussing them then they will never correctly prepare for them. This will lead to a dead spiritual heart.
