Personable Muslim (4th part)
The role of good taste in Muslim personality
In the previous section, we explained the definition of personality and some factors of its development, and in this section, we will have a detailed discussion about good taste and its effect on the personality of a Muslim person; Because the taste and purity of the soul plays an important role in the development of the Muslim personality and brings him to the heights of dignity and honor.
Therefore, a person with character; He has good taste and good taste, and he pays great attention to them in his personal and social life; Because he knows that these two phenomena have an obvious and essential role for character building and without them, character and self-esteem will not progress towards evolution.
Taste and decency come to the meanings of cleanliness and politeness, good manners, pleasant behavior, gentle and transparent soul and good character.
Good taste and good behavior make a Muslim person look attractive and charming and make a different person appear among the people. As they say: people with taste and good nature are friendly people; Sitting and being with them will never make you tired and bored, you will enjoy their speech, behavior and manner, and being away from them will make you sad.
Dear Islam advises us to be tasteful in behavior and actions; Now pay attention to the words of your Lord; God the Most High says:<یا أَیهَا الَّذِینَ آمَنُوا لَا تَدْخُلُوا بُیوتًا غَیرَ بُیوتِكُمْ حَتَّىٰ تَسْتَأْنِسُوا وَ تُسَلِّمُوا عَلَىٰ أَهْلِهَا ۚ ذَٰلِكُمْ خَیرٌ لَكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَذَكَّرُونَ> “O you who believe, do not enter a house other than yours until you have prayed and greeted its people.” O people of faith, never enter any house except your own without the permission of its owner and [ When you get permission and enter] greet the people of that house first. This [entering with permission and salutations, for good company and politeness of humanity] is much better for you.
The word “تَسْتَأْنِسُوا ” means to make sure that they are ready to welcome you and “تَسْتَأْنِسُوا” in the 21st century means to call them on the phone, a beautiful word that is full of taste, “تَسْتَأْنِسُوا” be sure that he You will be loved.
Sometimes it happens that someone goes to see a person without taking time; But sometimes the host apologizes to him, he should not be angry about this; Because good taste demands not to be angry As God the Exalted says:<وَإِنْ قِیلَ لَكُمُ ارْجِعُوا فَارْجِعُوا ۖ هُوَ أَزْكَىٰ لَكُمْ ۚ وَاللَّهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ عَلِیمٌ> “And if you are told [to return], then return. This is better for you and more worthy). Therefore, a Muslim with character and good manners, his Lord is aware of this and never gets tired or upset by such an event and understands the other side.
