1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:22,280
One of the secrets behind the happy and placid lives of true believers is the warm brotherhood

2
00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:23,820
and solidarity among them.

3
00:00:23,820 --> 00:00:31,580
Any behavior that might harm this unity and solidarity is a violation of the moral values described

4
00:00:31,580 --> 00:00:34,580
in the Quran.

5
00:00:34,580 --> 00:00:42,260
Indeed, God warns believers against this danger in these words.

6
00:00:42,260 --> 00:00:49,420
Obey God and his messenger and do not quarrel among yourselves, lest you lose heart and

7
00:00:49,420 --> 00:00:52,700
your momentum disappears.

8
00:00:52,700 --> 00:01:03,360
To be steadfast, God is with the steadfast.

9
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:09,480
Emotions such as discord, friction, enmity, and hatred are examples of poor moral values

10
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:11,720
that need to be avoided.

11
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:17,480
Sincere Muslims never conduct themselves under the influence of these undesirable feelings.

12
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:24,240
They fear God and are always modest, friendly, thoughtful, and full of love in their relations.

13
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:31,140
As a requirement of the stipulation in the Quran, believers scrupulously avoid any words or actions

14
00:01:31,140 --> 00:01:37,900
that might hurt their Muslim brothers, but exhibit behavior that will further increase the love and trust among them.

15
00:01:37,900 --> 00:01:41,800
A hadith of our prophet on this subject is as follows.

16
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:50,460
The habits of earlier generations have attacked you, envy and hatred.

17
00:01:50,460 --> 00:01:52,460
Hatred is shaving.

18
00:01:52,460 --> 00:01:55,220
You will not enter paradise till you believe.

19
00:01:55,220 --> 00:01:59,220
You will not believe till you love one another.

20
00:01:59,220 --> 00:02:03,120
Shall I not inform you what thing will establish you on it?

21
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:09,460
Spread peace among you.

22
00:02:09,460 --> 00:02:15,780
Any dispute or falling out among believers will weaken them and damage the atmosphere of peace.

23
00:02:15,780 --> 00:02:24,440
In fact, in one verse of the Quran, we are told that unless believers act as one another's guardians,

24
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:31,440
in other words, as their friends and protectors, there will be corruption on earth.

25
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:36,880
Those who do not believe are the friends and protectors of one another.

26
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:44,440
If you do not act in this way, there will be turmoil in the land and great corruption.

27
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:52,880
Even if a believer holds a different opinion to that of another believer, he or she must

28
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:58,700
still employ a reconciliatory, modest and respectful style.

29
00:02:58,700 --> 00:03:04,080
These different ideas will thus remain at the consultative level and will never grow into

30
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:05,640
an argument.

31
00:03:05,640 --> 00:03:11,720
In one verse, God issues the following commandment with regard to how believers should behave towards

32
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:16,220
one another.

33
00:03:16,220 --> 00:03:25,480
The believers are brothers, so make peace between your brothers and fear God, so that hopefully

34
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:26,880
you will gain mercy.
