I seek refuge in Allah from the accursed satan-
" When a Messenger comes to them from Allah confirming what is with
them, a group of those who have been given the Book disdainfully toss
the Book of Allah behind their backs, just as if they did not know."
(Surat al-Baqara, 201)
What Does " Maruf " Mean?
Goodness, grant. Good tradition. The suitable and desired manner
according to the moral values of Islam.
How Should a Muslim Talk?
Talking with Wisdom
Talking with wisdom means a person makes the truest, the most
usefuland the most appropriate conversation possible. However, there
is no rule about talking with wisdom, and it has no connection with
the individual's level of intelligence, culture, state of education
or technical knowledge.
An individual who has wisdom would have no desire to sell oneself to
other people. He knows that Allah is the One Who will give him wisdom
and make him talk, and submits to Allah and in talking only seeks His
Approval. As always, he is aware that he is not in thesight of people,
but in the Sight of Allah and that his speech can only be effective
with His Will. He prays to Allah to make his words effective and wise.
In return for this sincerity, one's conscience inspires in the
individual the most beautiful words to say. In one verse, the
importance of talking with wisdom is revealed as such:
I seek refuge in Allah from the accursed satan-
" He gives wisdom to whoever He wills and hewho has been given wisdom
has been given great good… " (Surat al-Baqara, 269)
Being Determined in Worship
I seek refuge in Allah from the accursed satan-
" He is Lord of the heavens and the earth and everything in between
them, so worship Him and persevere in His worship. Do you know ofany
other with His Name?" (Surah Maryam, 65)
"Determination" is showing patience about something, stopping at
nothing to reach the goal, and fulfilling what needs to be done no
matter what by acting with steadfastness. Allah wants Muslims not only
to worship Him, but also to be determined about worship.
Worship means being a servant. Every behavior, action, conversation,
and attitude people do for the cause of Allah is an act of worship.
As performing the prayer five times a day is an important and
obligatory act of worship for a person, in the same way, overcoming
anger, saying a nice word, warning people, not to make an assumption
or not to be argumentative are also acts of worship. Therefore,
Allah's Command "to be determined about worship" is valid for both
factual prayers and good moral values.
However, while Muslims are commanded to be determined in the verses,
there is one more important point revealed. This is the explanations
revealing that Muslims' steadfastness will be tested. Almighty Allah
may test Muslims' steadfastness to live according to the morality of
religion both through events that appear to be negative and with
blessings such as prosperity, health, richnessor power. In short,
Muslims are tested with both difficulty and accommodation. However,in
both situations, sincere believers would experience no negative change
in their behaviors, and they live the morality of Islam in every
situation and environment with thesame determination.
What Does it Mean to Be Honorable Against Disbelievers?
I seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Satan-
" You who have faith! If any of you renounce your religion, Allah will
bring forward a people whom He loves and wholove Him, humble to the
believers , fierce to the disbelievers , who strive in the Way of
Allah and do not fear the blame of any censurer. That is the unbounded
favor of Allah which He gives to whoever He wills.… " (Surat
al-Ma'ida, 54)
Allah commanded believers to have a good morality and, no matter what
happens and what kind of an attitude they are faced with, never to
give up these good qualities. The life of disbelievers contains
completely opposite attitudes to the good moral values of believers.
When believers come across these attitudes of disbelievers, they do
not descend to their level, andinstead respond with an honorable
attitude. They never make concessions tothe Qur'an, in the face of
their behavior, and show astrong determination about this. They
respond to a bad word with a goodword, to arrogance with humility, to
injustice with justice and to ruthlessness with mercy.
