• Love for them the good he loves for himself, and hate for them the evil he hates for himself.
• Urge them toward good and forbid them from evil.
• Overlook their faults and shortcomings.
• Strive for their unity—so that their hearts may be joined and the grudges that breed enmity and division may vanish—for when people come together in harmony, sins decrease, whereas when they splinter, evils and acts of disobedience proliferate.
• “And Allah knows your comings and goings and your place of rest” (Quran 47:19), that is, He knows your deeds and movements, your departures and arrivals, where you ultimately end up and where you settle; He encompasses you in every condition. This conveys both a warning and an encouragement, for recompense awaits every deed, whether good or bad.
