Grade 5
There are many good habits that a Muslim
must train himself to adopt. Some of these
good habits are as follows:
1 . A good Muslim does not make a habit of
swearing by Allah all the time, truthfully or
otherwise. If he exercises this kind of self-
control and trains his tongue accordingly, this
will lead him to break the habit altogether, with
or without intention.
2. He does not tell lies, whether in jest or in
earnest. If he practises self-control and his
tongue gets used to truthfulness, Allah will
purify his mind and heart and reward him
greatly for doing so. He will eventually reach a
point where telling lies will strike him as
unbearable.
He never promises something to someone
without fulfilling his promise. If he promises
someone, he does his best to keep it. He
knows that breaking a promise is equal in
effect to lying. He does not curse anyone or
anything; nor does he hurt anyone.
He does not direct his attention and interest
towards any form of sinful acts of
disobedience. He restrains all his limbs and
organs from any act that is not pleasing to
Almighty Allah, even though he feels like doing
it. Such efforts will bring him the quickest
reward to his heart and body in the present life
of this world and in the Hereafter.

He keeps himself away from inflicting any
burden or inconvenience, be it small or great,
on any of his fellow creatures.
He keeps a cheerful expression on his face and
avoids scowling. He avoids being
argumentative and quarrelsome. He is tolerant
towards people when they disagree with him
and shows patience with their annoying
behaviour. He does not harbour any bad
feelings towards any one of them; he does not
have the inclination to cheat and double-cross
them. He conceals his brothers' faults as far as
he possibly can. He does not backbite any one
of them when he is absent from their
company; and when he is present among
them, he does not speak ill of any absentee. If
one of them falls ill, he visits him. He does not
boycott those who boycott him; he gives to
those who deprive him, and pardons those
who wrong him. He does not borrow anything
from anyone, if he can possibly manage
without it.
