Allah Almighty says: {Those who abuse believing men and women for something they did not commit, they will bear the burden of slander and flagrant sin.} [Surat al-Ahzāb: 58]
1565/1- ‘Abdullāh ibn ‘Amr ibn al-‘Ās (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) reported that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) said: “The Muslim is the one from whose tongue and hand the Muslims are safe, and the emigrant is the one who abandons what Allah has forbidden.” [Narrated by Al-Bukhāri and Muslim]
1) The sign of the truthfulness of a person’s belief in Islam is that the Muslims are safe from his tongue and hand.
2) It is obligatory to keep away from whatever causes harm to Muslims or hurts them morally or physically.
1566/2- He also reported that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) said: “He who desires to be rescued from the fire of Hell and to enter Paradise should die in a state of complete belief in Allah and the Last Day, and should do unto others what he wishes to be done unto him.” [Narrated by Muslim]
This is part of a lengthy Hadīth that was previously cited in the chapter on obeying the rulers.
1) Assuming the qualities of faith and good manners protects one from the evil of trials and saves him from the Fire on the Day of Judgment.
2) One has to always strive in doing the deeds that admit him to Paradise and distance him from the Hellfire. He should pursue the means of safety and salvation in the worldly life and the Hereafter.
