00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,660
Allah the Exalted says:

2
00:00:02,660 --> 00:00:12,220
“A kind word with forgiveness is better than almsgiving followed by injury. Allah is Absolute, Clement.” (2:263)

3
00:00:12,220 --> 00:00:16,920
And Allah is Free of need and Forbearing.

4
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:19,519
Muslim recorded in his Sahih:

5
00:00:19,519 --> 00:00:24,019
That the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said:

6
00:00:24,019 --> 00:00:27,260
"A good word is a charity."

7
00:00:27,260 --> 00:00:29,379
And among the acts of kindness

8
00:00:29,539 --> 00:00:32,539
Is that you meet your brother with a cheerful face.

9
00:00:32,539 --> 00:00:35,899
Some of the wise have said:

10
00:00:35,899 --> 00:00:38,899
"Receive the one in need with a pleasant countenance;

11
00:00:38,899 --> 00:00:40,899
For even if you lack the means to fulfill his request,

12
00:00:40,899 --> 00:00:42,899
You shall not lack his excuse."
