Imitate His ﷺ Good Behavior
As-Salāmu ‘Alaykum wa Raḥmatullāhi wa Barakātuh. A‘ūdhu Billāhi Minash-shayṭāni r-rajīm. Bismillāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm. Wa ṣ-Salātu wa s-Salāmu ‘alá Rasūlinā Muḥammadin Sayyidi l-Awwalīna wa l-Akhirīn. Madad yā RasūlAllāh, Madad yā Sādāti Aṣḥābi Rasūlillāh, Madad yā Mashāyikhinā, Dastūr Mawlana Sheikh Abdullāh al-Fā’iz ad-Dāghistāni, Sheikh Muḥammad Nāẓim al-Ḥaqqānī. Madad. Ṭarīqatunā aṣ-Suḥbah wa l-Khayru fi l-Jam‘iyyah.
The Prophet salla Llahu aa’layhi wa sallam has the highest good behavior. , “Allah gave me good behavior and He perfected it.” What the Prophet ﷺ behaves is the best behavior. We must imitate him, especially in this. Good behavior is an attribute that Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla loves, the Prophet ﷺ loves and people are also happy with everyone who has good behavior. Everywhere, people are happy with him. If he doesn’t have good behavior, people will be away from him.
There are thousands of things [examples] of good behavior that you can do to be good with people. Especially if someone does something good for you, to not forget it. Many people do good things for others, maybe for years and years. And one time they make some fault or wrong thing, people quickly forget all these years. And after that, they become angry and sometimes become enemies; they forget all these good years. This is not from the attribute of the Prophet salla Llahu aa’layhi wa sallam and the attribute of the Mu’min/believer.
Nobody is perfect. Sometimes it can be like this, so you must be patient and remember how many [good] things they’ve done for you before; being friends and together all these years. So if something happens, we must say: “Maybe today his mood is not good. Today he’s not happy, or something happened.” Forget this, and don’t put in your heart hatred for others.
This also happens many times between wife and husband. The whole time they are the closest ones to each other. When something happens, they forget all of this and begin to fight. This fight becomes bigger and bigger. And sometimes they separate, they divorce.
For this, we are living in this world where if you’re not following and taking example from the Prophet salla Llahu aa’layhi wa sallam, you can do many things wrong. You harm yourself and harm others also. For this, we must make excuse for everything; excuse not for ourselves but for others. What all people are doing now is make excuse for themselves. When they do this, it cannot be good. Because others also make like this, and nobody accepts his fault, his wrong.
Our ego, our self in this world is like itself not like others. For this you must not follow your ego. You must train your ego to be patient and to say [to itself], “You are wrong. You did this and made me angry, and made me put in my heart hatred for others.” It will be good for all people to imitate this good behavior of the Prophet salla Llahu aa’layhi wa sallam and Awliya’uLlah Al Saliheen/the Righteous.
May Allah ﷻ help us. It is not easy. When you say it, it looks easy; but when you want to do it, it is difficult. But you must do the difficult thing to improve yourself and to get better insha’Allah.
Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.
