By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan

Being sparing of words and not thinking ill of anyone When visitors to a Companion (Sahabi) who lay dying saw that his face was shining, they asked him the reason. He replied that he had two habits, which had stood him in good stead: “I used not to speak about matters that were no concern of mine, and my heart remained well-intentioned toward Muslims.” (JAMI‘ AL-ULUM WA AL-HIKAM)
