Once a companion (ra) asked , "O Messenger of Allah , who is the best among the people?" Prophet (saws) replied "Truthful by tongue, pure and kind at heart, and without any burden of sins , the one who does not have envy or grudge towards others (is the best) "
[Ibn Majah]
Explantion: One thing should be remembered that the more we adhere to our faith & are firm in Tawheed i.e. the belief in the Oneness of Allah (Swt) , the more united will be the Muslim Ummah.
We are distancing ourselves from the qualities of the early Muslims. They were pure from jealousies, mutual rivalries & envy. They never looked down upon their brother and never lashed their tongue with taunts or derogatory comments , but unfortunately, we are afflicted with these vices.
It is time to wake up to the realities of our faith and be aware of our rights and duties as Muslims.
