CHAPTER

Politeness
Son, cultivate humility,
politeness. It is beneficial in both the worlds. It is said in the tradition
that politeness raises one's status.(Wasael
- 2, p. 407)Politeness increases your wisdom.(Wasel
- 2, p 407)Politeness is the fruit of
concentration, fear of Allah and modesty.(Mustadrak
- 2, p. 306)Allah is proud of those who are
polite and humble. He has appointed one angel for every person, and he has put
the angel in control of his head. Whenever he raises his head in arrogance, the
angel brings it down, and whenever he bows his head in politeness, the angel
raises his head.(Wasael
2, p. 471)Hazrat Moosa (a.s.) was made
Qaleem' by Allah because of his polite and humble nature. He put down his
head in dust so Allah made his the most exalted and supreme in the world.Son, don't consider anybody small. It is an insult of
Allah.
