Overlooking others faults for the sake of Allah… and acquiring good character

Answered by 

Shaykh Yusuf Mullan

Answered by Mufti Yusuf Mullan

I read an answer mentioning that we are supposed to love our Muslim brothers and try to oversee their bad qualities or faults. My question is, when ever I am around some Muslim brothers, they irritate me to such an extent that my bad qualities and anger come out. In this situation can I avoid them as much as possible?

Answer:

In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Wa alaikum salaam,

Yes. Minimizing contact with such individuals could well be wise. Also view the following comprehensive replies about anger and acquiring good character:

And Allah alone gives success.
