Hadith on Good Manners and Speech.
Hadith on Good Manners and Speech
Narrated by Abud-Darda (رضي الله عنه):
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Nothing will be heavier on the Day of Resurrection in the Scale of the believer than good manners. Allah hates one who utters foul or coarse language.”

🌿 Reflection
This hadith reminds us that good character is not a small matter in Islam—it carries immense weight on the Day of Judgment. More than wealth or status, what truly matters is how we treat others and the quality of our manners. Islam teaches that the believer should be known for kindness, humility, and respect. At the same time, the Prophet ﷺ warns against foul language and coarse speech, which not only harm others but also distance us from Allah’s mercy.
✨ Daily Practice
- Speak kindly and avoid harsh or offensive words.
- Remember that silence is better than harmful speech.
- Strive to practice patience and forgiveness in daily interactions.
- Make good manners a form of worship, seeking Allah’s pleasure.
Good manners beautify faith and weigh heavily on the scales of a believer—so let’s carry them daily with sincerity.
