Brother, Islam is full of Peace, Blessing (Rahmah) and humility to each other. Deen (Religion) organizes and comands us to love one another and be united. It tells us to be modest, patient, pure and respect others and love our Parents.
Islam is all about Love, to love our Brothers and sisters, to love Allaah and his messenger :saw2: and to avoiding fighting with eachother, to help the poor and protect the oppressed. It tells us to have manners, to not to hurt a life unjustly, to not to kill even an "ant" (note: the army of Sulayman disussed in the Qur'aan), It tells us to serve our parents, it tells us to obey Allaah and his Messenger :saw2: It is our total Submission to our Lord (Rabb). It gives us guidance and organizes us so we donot misguide ourselves and above all, we donot misguide our inner soul.
I will narrate a few ahaadeeth, and then give you the link to the whole book, Adaab al-Mufrad by Bukhaaree, entitled: "The Etiquette and Manners" [of specifically a "Muslim" and what he is required to do].
The Humility towards Parents
Bahz ibn Hakim's grandfather said, "I asked, 'Messenger of Allah, to whom should I be dutiful?' 'Your mother,' he replied. I asked, 'Then whom?' 'Your mother,' he replied. I asked, 'Then whom?' 'Your mother,' he replied. I asked, 'Then to whom should I be dutiful?' 'Your father,' he replied, 'and then the next closest relative and then the next.'" (Adaab Al-Mufrad, 1:3)
To Love our Brothers and serve them what we serve for ourselves
Narrated Anas: The Prophet said, "None of you will have faith till he wishes for his (Muslim) brother what he likes for himself." (Sahih Bukhari, Book 2, Hadith 12)
To Help the Oppressed
Narrated Al-Bara' bin 'Azib: Allah's Apostle ordered us to do seven things and forbade us to do other seven. He ordered us: to follow the funeral procession. to visit the sick, to accept invitations, to help the Oppressed, to fulfill the oaths, to return the greeting and to reply to the sneezer: (saying, "May Allah be merciful on you," provided the sneezer says, "All the praises are for Allah,"). He forbade us to use silver utensils and dishes and to wear golden rings, silk (clothes), Dibaj (pure silk cloth), Qissi and Istabraq (two kinds of silk cloths). (Sahih Bukhaaree Book #23, Hadith #331)
Narrated Anas bin Malik: Allah's Apostle said, "Help your brother, whether he is an oppressor or he is an Oppressed one." (Book Sahih Bukhaaree #43, Hadith #623)
Narrated Anas: Allah's Apostle said, "Help your brother, whether he is an oppressor or he is an Oppressed one. People asked, "O Allah's Apostle! It is all right to help him if he is Oppressed, but how should we help him if he is an oppressor?" The Prophet said, "By preventing him from oppressing others." (Sahih Bukhaaree Book #43, Hadith #624)
Narrated Ibn 'Abbas: The Prophet sent Mu'adh to Yemen and said, "Be afraid, from the curse of the Oppressed as there is no screen between his invocation and Allah." (Sahih Bukhaaree Book #43, Hadith #628)
Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Apostle said, "Whoever has Oppressed another person concerning his reputation or anything else, he should beg him to forgive him before the Day of Resurrection when there will be no money (to compensate for wrong deeds), but if he has good deeds, those good deeds will be taken from him according to his oppression which he has done, and if he has no good deeds, the sins of the Oppressed person will be loaded on him." (Sahih Bukhaaree Book #43, Hadith #629)
To Give Alms to the poor and help them / feed them
(3) Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Amr: A man asked the Prophet , "What sort of deeds or (what qualities of) Islam are good?" The Prophet replied, 'To feed (the poor) and greet those whom you know and those whom you do not Know (See Hadith No. 27). (Sahih Bukhaaree Book #2, Hadith #11)
(4) Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Amr: A person asked Allah's Apostle . "What (sort of) deeds in or (what qualities of) Islam are good?" He replied, "To feed (the poor) and greet those whom you know and those whom you don't know." (Sahih Bukhaaree Book #2, Hadith #27)
Islaam is full of such beauiful things and deeds, their reward is dear to Allaah and full of Gratitude, unfortunately, I cannot relate the whole thing here, It will cost me my whole life narrating and writting about the humility and Justice (As of Umar (r.a) Islaam has and even till then, I won't be able to tell even nearly a quarter of it.
