Forgiving those who wrong us

“Kind words and forgiveness are better than charity followed by injury. And Allah is Self-Sufficient, Most Forbearing.” (Surah Baqrah : 263)

Responding to evil by what is better

“Respond to evil with what is best. We know well what they claim.” ( (Al-Mu-minun:96)

” and—above all—to be one of those who have faith and urge each other to perseverance and urge each other to compassion. “(Al-Balad:17)

Speaking words of kindness to uplift others

Kind words and forgiveness are better than charity followed by injury. And Allah is Self-Sufficient, Most Forbearing. (Al-Baqarah:263)

Sharing with others what one loves

“you will never achieve righteousness until you donate some of what you cherish. And whatever you give is certainly well known to Allah.” (Al-Imran:92)

Saving another person’s life

“That is why We ordained for the Children of Israel that whoever takes a life—unless as a punishment for murder or mischief in the land—it will be as if they killed all of humanity; and whoever saves a life, it will be as if they saved all of humanity.¹ ˹Although˺ Our messengers already came to them with clear proofs, many of them still transgressed afterwards through the land.” (Al- Ma’idah:32)

Treating one’s parents with utmost kindness

For your Lord has decreed that you worship none but Him. And honour your parents. If one or both of them reach old age in your care, never say to them ˹even˺ ‘ugh,’ nor yell at them. Rather, address them respectfully.(Al Isra:23)

Being good to every person that we interact with

Worship Allah ˹alone˺ and associate none with Him. And be kind to parents, relatives, orphans, the poor, near and distant neighbours, close friends, ˹needy˺ travellers, and those ˹bondspeople˺ in your possession. Surely Allah does not like whoever is arrogant, boastful—(An-Nisa:36)

Making peace and reconciliation between people

The believers are but one brotherhood, so make peace between your brothers. And be mindful of Allah so you may be shown mercy.(Al-Huujurat:10)

˹The faithful are˺ also those who are true to their trusts and covenants;and who are honest in their testimony;(Al- Ma’arij:32-33)

Standing firmly for justice even if it goes against oneself

O believers! Stand firm for justice as witnesses for Allah even if it is against yourselves, your parents, or close relatives. Be they rich or poor, Allah is best to ensure their interests. So do not let your desires cause you to deviate ˹from justice˺. If you distort the testimony or refuse to give it, then ˹know that˺ Allah is certainly All-Aware of what you do. (An-Nisa:135)

Remaining patient in a difficult situation

And seek help through patience and prayer. Indeed, it is a burden except for the humble—(Al-Baqarah:45)

Walking with humility

The ˹true˺ servants of the Most Compassionate are those who walk on the earth humbly, and when the foolish address them ˹improperly˺, they only respond with peace.(Al Furqan:63)

Verifying news before sharing it

O believers, if an evildoer brings you any news, verify ˹it˺ so you do not harm people unknowingly, becoming regretful for what you have done.(Al-Hujurat:6)

Reflecting upon the signs of Allah

˹They are˺ those who remember Allah while standing, sitting, and lying on their sides, and reflect on the creation of the heavens and the earth ˹and pray˺, “Our Lord! You have not created ˹all of˺ this without purpose. Glory be to You! Protect us from the torment of the Fire. (Al-Imran:191)
