‘Abdullāh ibn ‘Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The pleasure of Allah is in the pleasure of the parents, and the displeasure of Allah is in the displeasure of the parents."
Narrated by At-Termedhy
This Hadīth states that Allah, the Exalted, has linked His pleasure to the pleasure of the parents (with their child), and His displeasure to their displeasure. Hence, whoever pleases his parents pleases Allah, the Exalted, and whoever displeases them displeases Allah.
Mu‘ādh ibn Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever gives up wearing elegant expensive clothes out of humbleness with Allah, while he can afford it, Allah will call him on the Day of Judgment before all people and let him choose whichever of the garments of faith he would like to wear."
Narrated by At-Termedhy - Narrated by Ahmad
Whoever gives up wearing elegant clothes out of humbleness with Allah and abandonment of worldly adornment, while he can afford it, Allah will call him on the Day of Judgment before all people out of honor for him, and allow him to choose whichever of the adornments of the dwellers of Paradise he would like to wear.
Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "A believer is the mirror of his fellow believer."
Narrated by At-Termedhy - Narrated by Abu Daoud
In this Hadih, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) gives a beautiful description and an eloquent simile of the attitude of a Muslim towards his Muslim brother. He outlines the responsibility of a Muslim towards his fellow Muslim; directs him to good manners so that he would adopt them and warns him against evil manners so that he would avoid them. He is thus like a polished mirror to his brother in which the latter sees his true self. The Hadīth indicates that giving advice to the believers is obligatory. If one becomes aware of a flaw in his Muslim brother, or an error that he commits, he should bring it to his attention and guide him to rectify it. But this should be done privately, because such advice in public is tantamount to disgrace.
‘Iyād ibn Himār, the brother of Bani Mujāshi‘ (may Allah be pleased with him), reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) stood among us one day and delivered a sermon, in which he said: and then he narrated the Hadīth that includes: "And verily, Allah revealed to me that you must be humble, so that no one boasts of oneself before another or oppresses another."
Narrated by Muslim
The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) stood among his Companions to deliver a sermon, and among what he said was: Indeed, Allah revealed to him that people must show humility toward one another—by lowering their wings to others and displaying gentleness of character—so that no one should boast of greatness, pride, or superiority over others due to lineage, wealth, or anything else. And so that no one should do wrong or transgress against another.
Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Verily you cannot embrace and suffice all people with your money, but you can embrace and suffice them all with a cheerful face and good manners."
Al-Haakim
This Hadīth is proof of the virtue of having a smiling, cheerful face when meeting others, as well as the virtue of having good manners and good social relations, and of being kind to people in word and deed to all people. This is indeed within the capacity of each human being. Good manners create mutual love and nurture amicability and friendliness among the members of a society.
‘Abdullāh ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever exalts himself over others and walks with a swaggering gait (with pride), will meet Allah while He is angry with him."
Al-Haakim - Narrated by Ahmad
The Hadīth indicates the blameworthiness of haughtiness and arrogance. Such haughtiness and arrogance appears in one's gait as he swaggers, in one's clothes, speech and in all his affairs. Whoever is in such a state of haughtiness, assumes himself to be great, and deserves to be exalted over others. This one will meet Allah on the Day of Judgment while He is angry with him.
Abu Umāmah Iyās ibn Tha‘labah al-Ansāri al-Hārithi (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Companions of the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) once mentioned the (luxuries) of the worldly life in his presence. So the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Will you not listen? Will you not listen? Simplicity is part of faith, simplicity is part of faith."
Narrated by Ibn Majah - Narrated by Abu Daoud - Narrated by Ahmad
Some of the Prophet's Companions talked about the luxuries of the worldly life. So he said to them: "Will you not listen", in order to urge them to listen to what he was going to say, and repeated this to emphasize its importance. Then he told them that observing modesty in one's clothes and adornment is a manner of the people of faith, and that faith is what motivates a person to be modest.
‘Ā’ishah, the Mother of the believers (may Allah be pleased with her) and wife of the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him), reported that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O ‘Ā’ishah, indeed, Allah is gentle and He loves gentleness, and He gives for gentleness what He does not give for violence and what He does not give for anything else."
Narrated by Muslim
The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) encouraged the Mother of the Believers, ‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her), to be gentle, informing that Allah deals gently and kindly with His servants and wants ease for them, not hardship. He does not burden them beyond their capacity and loves that His servant adopts gentleness and ease in dealing with others, avoiding harshness or severity. He added that Allah Almighty grants for gentleness and kindness in this world a praiseworthy reputation, attainment of goals, and ease in pursuing one's affairs. And in the Hereafter, He grants a great reward, greater than what He gives for violence, harshness, or severity, because gentleness brings results that nothing else can bring.
Jābir (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, among the most beloved to me and the closest of you to me in position on the Day of Judgment are those of you who have the best morals, and, indeed, the most hated of you to me and the farthest from me in position on the Day of Judgment are the talkative, the pompous, and the Mutafayhiqūn." They said: O Messenger of Allah, we know the talkative and the pompous, but who are the Mutafayhiqūn? He said: "The arrogant."
Narrated by At-Tirmidhi
The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) informed that those who are most beloved to him from among you in this world and the closest to him in position on the Day of Judgment are those of you who have the best morals. He also stated that those who are most detested from among you to him in this world and farthest from him in position on the Day of Judgment are those with bad morals; (the talkative) who speak excessively and unnecessarily, deviating from the truth; (the pompous) who exaggerate their speech to impress others or to make their words seem more important without careful consideration. And (the Mutafayhiqūn); they said: O Messenger of Allah, we understand who the talkative and the pompous are, but what about the Mutafayhiqūn? He replied: They are arrogant people who mock others, expanding their speech and opening their mouths therewith.
