THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Arba'a, 23rd day of Rabeeul Awwal 1444AH (Wednesday 19th October. 2022).
*_TOLERANCE WITH PEOPLE IN ISLAM_*. BismilLah.
The scholars of prophetic narrations understood tolerance to be a very important concept in Islam and specifically in business.
Ibn Majah includes in his Sunan a chapter entitled, “On tolerance in trade,” in which he records the following narration:
Imam Uthman ibn Affan may ALLAH be pleased with him reported: The Messenger of ALLAH, peace and blessings be upon him, said:
ALLAH the Exalted will admit a man into Paradise who was easy in his buying and selling, in his paying debts and seeking repayments.
Sunan An-Nasa’I 4696.
Therefore, Muslims should always treat others with respect, kindness, and patience. Islam was revealed to make life easier and to encourage good relationships between people.
In modern usage, the word “tolerance” has come to signify mutual respect and peaceful coexistence between conflicting religions and ideologies. No doubt, Islam supports tolerance on a societal level. Muslims ought to peacefully coexist with any group that desires peaceful coexistence and show kindness to soften their hearts towards Islam.
*_May ALLAH keep guiding us all and increases us in beneficial knowledge_*. Aameen.
