MORAL CONDUCT
Moral conduct is a mood arousing good behavior with others by showing happy mien, nice wording, and kind manners. As he was asked about the limit of moral conduct, Imam as-Sadiq (a) answered:
"It is to be modest, speak honorably, and meet your brother cheerfully."
One of the expectations that every judicious individual exerts efforts for achieving is to have an attractive personality. It is surely a noble aim that cannot be attained by everyone except the virtuous and those who are characterized by knowledgeability, liberality, courage, and the like good traits.
All virtues, however, cannot be true matters of admiration unless they are connected to moral conduct. On that account, moral conduct is the core and pivot of virtues. The The Ahl ul-Bayt (a) used a variety of instructive methods in favor of glorifying the moral conduct so remarkably:
The Prophet (s) said: "The best of you are the most well-mannered and generous ones who go on intimate terms with people and people go on intimate terms with them, and whose places of residence are frequently trodden on by guests." 5
"He who has a good nature will have the reward of those who observe fasting in days and keep awake praying at nights." 6
"You cannot treat people by means of your wealth; hence, you should treat them by means of your moral conduct." 7
Imam al-Baqir (a) said: "The most perfect believers, 8 in the sight of faith, are the most well-mannered."9
Imam as-Sadiq (a) said: "After the fulfillment of the obligatory religious duties, the most favorable thing that a servant offers to Allah is to extend the moral conducts over people." 10
