The Prophet spoke with clarity and made people comprehend easily, sometimes by even repeating his words thrice.

*▫️. Starting with Allah’s Name.* It says in al-Mawsoo‘ah al-Fiqhiyyah (8/92): Most of the fuqaha’ are agreed that saying the name of Allah is prescribed for all things of importance, both acts of worship and other things.

*▫️. One who talks too much is liable to make mistakes and commit sins.* The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “It is enough sin for a man to speak of everything that he hears.” Al-Silsilah al-Saheehah, 2025.

   *▫️. Refraining from “they say”.* It was narrated that Abu Qalaabah said: Abu Mas’ood said to Abu ‘Abd-Allaah, or Abu ‘Abd-Allaah said to Abu Mas’ood: What did you hear the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) say about saying “they say…”? He said: I heard the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) say: “How bad it is for a man to keep saying, ‘They say…’. ” al-Silsilah al-Saheehah, 866.

  *▫️. Deliberating with an open mind.* The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Deliberation is from Allaah and haste is from the Shaytaan.” Al-Silsilah al-Saheehah, 1795. The one who deliberates may meet some of his needs whilst the one who is hasty may slip.

*▫️. Verifying information.* Al-Hasan al-Basri said: “The believer reserves judgment until the matter is proven.” Q49:6, al-Silsilah al-Saheehah, 3085, Muslim in al-Muqaddimah, 6; Saheeh al-Jaami, 4482, Al-Silsilah al-Saheehah, 2025, al-Bukhaari, 2231.

*▫️. Avoid laughing at a mistake made by others.* Q49:11 Every man makes mistake; it is wrong to laugh at a mistake made by others, and some things are not mistakes but natural things. Al-Bukhaari (4942) and Muslim (2855) narrated from ‘Abdullah ibn Zam‘ah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) admonished them for laughing at the passing of wind and said: “Why does one of you laugh at what he does?”.

‘Abdullah ibn Zam‘ah said: The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) forbade laughing at what comes out of one naturally. al-Bukhaari. Fataawa al-Lajnah ad-Daa’imah, 26/222

*▫️. Not forcing an idea on others.* Q88:22, Ibn Rajab commented on Muslim 21, saying: The meaning is that your duty is only to remind them about Allah and to preach to them. You do not have authority to enter faith into their hearts by force and you are not responsible for that. Jami’ al-‘Ulum wal-H‌ikam 1/236.

The Prophet never forced the religion upon anyone, and he never compelled them to enter his religion. Hidayat al-H‌ayara 1/237

*▫️. Curtail falsehood by not spreading it.* A brother was accused of a criminal act (not convicted yet), and a brother put it on social media that he did it, giving falsehood life?! Then if he is being acquitted of the case, how would the carrier of falsehood clear his grave sins?! Abu Yusuf reported: Umar ibn al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him, said,

“Know that Allah has servants who cause some falsehood to die out by ignoring it and they give life to the truth by mentioning it.” Kitaab al-Kharraaj 1/23

*Conclusion*

Verbal and nonverbal communication can be dangerous; *if one wants to know how powerful words are, he should imagine what will happen to the one who goes to a place where a corpse is being laid down amidst his grieving family, and say: “I killed him”?!*.

*Only 3 words can lead to his death also. Words can either speak life or speak death; our tongues (or hands) can build others up, or tear them down. Therefore, Islam imparts and spread blameless and principled manners for every Muslim to maintain and to know what, why, where, when, and how to communicate.* So, we should learn how to talk when necessary and how to keep quiet; every believer must learn both arts. *We will die and what we utter or write remains, especially on internet*.

Islam has laid down principles on how to communicate unprecedented in the history of mankind, what some beautiful ways to build love in man’s heart?! Smiling and starting with the greeting of salam, speaking kindly and gently, showing warmth, love by considering the position of whom you are addressing, saying only that which is good and beneficial with knowledge, choosing to be patient and kind even over being right, and always ending with a warm smile and the salam – It is only in Islam, *Alhamdulillaah I am a Muslim*.
