He is not a believer if his neighbor does not feel safe from his treachery.
Never scoff at a neighbor’s gift, even if it is sheep’s hooves.

Manners

The most odious of men are those who quarrel.
Do not snoop.
God hath not made it lawful for you to enter the houses of others without their permission.
Control your anger.
The exercise of religious duties will not atone for an abusive tongue.
No father has given his child anything better than good manners.

Visiting the Sick

Visit the sick and comfort them.

Charity

Give ungrudgingly; do not hold back, lest God holds back from you.
One’s wealth does not diminish with charity.

Moderation

Let each of you pray to the extent of your energy; then sit down when you are tired.
Be moderate in religion.

Modesty

Do not lavish praise on me like the Christians lavish praise on the son of Mary. I am only a slave. Call me God’s slave and messenger.

Non-Muslims

All prophets are brothers, with different mothers but one religion. I am close to Jesus, in this world and the Hereafter. Do not consider me better than Moses.
When the bier of anyone passes you, whether Jew, Christian or Muslim, rise to your feet.
Once Muhammad got up when a bier went by and he was told: “This is the bier of a Jew.” He responded: “So what, did it not have a soul?”

Travel

Travel is torment, interfering with sleeping, eating and drinking. So when you have concluded your business, hasten to your family.

Keeping Good Company

Beware of hanging around in the streets. The people said: “That’s the only place we have to sit and chat.” In that case, give the street its rights. They asked: “What are the rights of the street?” He said: “Those on it should lower their gaze, refrain from causing trouble to others, return people’s greetings, and enjoin good and forbid evil.”

Animals

Fear God in how you treat animals.

Suicide

Let none of you wish for death because of a loss or harm that has befallen you.

Muslim Sects / Spiritual Divisions

Sunnis and Shiites

About 87 percent of all Muslims (1.05 billion) are Sunnis — those who follow the sunnah (sayings and deeds) of the Prophet Muhammad.

The remaining 13 percent (170 million) are Shiites (also known as Shia or Shiat Ali, the party of Ali, the fourth caliph of Islam, whom they follow). Shiites constitute the religious majority in Iran, Iraq, Bahrain, Yemen and Azerbaijan, and they are the largest religious group in Lebanon.

Sufis

Sufis are Muslim mystics who practice Sufism. Unlike the division between the majority Sunnis and the minority Shiites, which is based on a dispute over who should have succeeded the Prophet Muhammad, the distinction between Sufis and non-Sufi Muslims is “a vertical division.” Sufis may be Sunnis or Shiites.
