The topic
I have chosen
for this morning's talk is,
if
the label shows your intent,
wear it.
It is rather
an unusual topic.
People may wonder
that what
has the label
got to do with Islam,
or the Muslims.
People
are rather curious
that
what will be the content
of this talk.
It's rather
an unusual topic.
I start my talk
by quoting
a verse from the glorious Quran, From Suri
Anam,
chapter number 6,
verse number 54, which says,
And when those come to thee,
who believe in our signs,
tell peace be on you.
It means that whenever a moment,
whenever a Muslim
comes to you, you should say,
Assalamu alaikum.
May peace be on you. It's compulsory
that whenever a Muslim meets another Muslim,
whenever a woman meets another woman, he should
say
may peace be on you. It's complexity.
The other was I quoted
was
from Surin Nisa,
chapter number 4,
verse number 86 where it says,
which means that when a courteous
greeting
is offered to you,
meet it with
a greeting
still more courteous,
or at least the same.
And Allah
is careful
in keeping accounts of all things.
That means whenever
any person
greets you,
you should greet him with
a greeting which is more courteous,
or at least
of equal courtesy.
It's compulsory.
For example,
if suppose
someone wishes you,
you should wish
back,
If someone says,
you should wish
back,
May peace, mercy and blessings of Allah
be on all of you.
Or if someone says,
you can even reply,
The words are the same,
but it is coming from within
the heart, from the depths of the heart,
from the bottom of the heart. The words
are the same, but it is still a
more courteous beauty.
Or if someone says
And if you cannot improve on that, at
least say,
minimum
of equal courtesy.
But there are many Muslims
who own companies,
who have got various employees under them.
And when their employees,
when they wish them,
they either nod
or they murmur
or. Some even don't care to reply.
These Muslims, they are going against the commandment
of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala in the glorious
Quran. In Surin Nasar, chapter 4 was 8,
60 says, you should
wish back more courteously, or at least
wish
back with equal courtesy.
He's greet back the person with equal courtesy.
It's minimum.
