[…] often what we hear from brothers and sisters can be so harsh that it can scarcely be called advice3 . I would like to mention some things to keep in mind when we find ourselves on the receiving end […]

Excellent reminder. I’m not sure who said it, but there’s a quote (maybe from a poem) that we should look at our own faults before looking for faults in others. And in doing so, we’ll always be kept busy with our own weaknesses – instead of being judgmental.

It’s human nature to see the negative more than appreciating the positive..but, ironically, that seems to apply to other people most of the time – and we forget to look in the mirror first.

JazakAllah khair, this is an excellent reminder. Oftentimes in our community we focus so much on a person’s one fault that we ignore all of the positive they do and have done. No one is perfect, we’re all trying our best. We should realize that broadcasting the faults of others does little to change the situation (actually, it makes it worse).

JazakAllah for this important reminder. It is so easy to become jaded when you feel so many people are attacking you; I found myself avoiding the internet discussions all together. Even starting with myself, we are no way in a position to judge others when we ourselves have flaws that we hope others overlook while giving us encouragement.

Maashallah this is a perfect reminder for me! Just yesterday i was greatly annoyed by daughter’s teacher at her madhrasah and i complained to friends. Now,i have been reminded to shut up:) and not spread his faults! When we have been hurt by another,we tend to want to vent out by complaining to another. But lets wait and think,r we not spreading evil? When we 4give and 4get,what happens to all those we have told? As long as we cant erase this from their memory its better to be patient or complain to ppl who can actually talk to the person involved. May Allah over look our short comings and keep our ties of brother hood strong and in good health,aamin.
