Do What You Say
Almighty Allah said (translation):
O you who have believed, why do you say what you do not do?
Great is hatred in the sight of Allah that you say what you do not do.
[Quran, Surat As-Saf (61):2-3]
Good Morals
According to Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him):
The Prophet Muhammad (may Allah’s peace be upon him) said:
“Indeed, I was sent to complete good morals.”
[Ahmad 2/381; Al Bukhari in Aladab Almufrad #273]
Don’t Get Angry
Narrated Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him):
A man asked the Prophet Muhammad (May Allah be pleased with him) to counsel him and he said:
Do not become angry.
The man repeated that several times and he replied:
Do not become angry.
[Al-Bukhari; as quoted in Riyad-us-Saliheen; Chapter 3, #48; Dar-us-Salaam Publications]
Real Strength
Narrated Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him):
Allah’s Messenger (may Allah’s peace be upon him) said:
The strong man is not one who is good at wrestling, but the strong man is one who controls himself in a fit of rage.
