Gentleness (Husnu Al-Khuluk/Al-refk)
A verse:
----------
"It is part of the Mercy of Allah that thou dost deal gently with them. Wert thou severe or harsh-hearted, they would have broken away from about thee: so pass over (their faults), and ask for (Allah's) forgiveness for them; and consult them in affairs (of moment). Then, when thou hast taken a decision, put thy trust in Allah. For Allah loves those who put their trust (in Him)" (aal-'Imraan )
And a Hadith from among many others www.sahihalbukhari.com):
----------------------------------- --
" We were sitting with 'Abdullah bin 'Amr who was narrating to us (Hadith): He said, "Allah's Apostle was neither a Fahish nor a Mutafahhish, and he used to say, 'The best among you are the best in character (having good manners)."'
*Fahish or Mutafahhish is a person who uses bad language, is rude and rough. "This is to the best of my knowledge."
