Hadith of the Month

Brotherhood

On the authority of Abu Hurairah, who said: the Messenger of Allah said: "Do not harbour grudge against one another. Do not hate one another. Do not turn away from one another. Do not be jealous of one another. Become O servants of Allah, brothers. A Muslim is the brother of a Muslim he neither oppresses him nor does he fail him, he neither lies to him nor does he hold him in contempt. Piety is right here-and he pointed to his breast three times. It is evil enough for a man to hold his brother Muslim in contempt. The whole of a Muslim for another Muslim is inviolable: his blood, his property, and his honour."
