And, likewise, his grandson Imam Ja'far al-Sadiq (a.s.) was reported to have said: "The best and most complete greeting of he who is at home is handshaking, and the best and complete greeting for a traveler is an embrace." There is no difference whether he is going or coming back from the journey. 5- In our daily life, a name has a great role to play more the story of naming someone on the day of his birth…it is our companion who may leave his effect on us positively or negatively.

It is in view of this that Islam enjoins on us to call people by their best name. If he wants us to call him with his real name we must call him by it, and if he wants us to use his surname we must call him by it. It is good even to add more phrases in the names to show our respect for him. It is said in the moral laws that: "If you want people to love you, call them by their names because the name of a person is the most loveable thing to him.

When you address a person and call him by his name, you are giving him respect, which he will thank you for in return. But, when you forget his name, he will regard it as disrespect to him." 6- Paying attention to what others are saying is a good habit, which expresses love and respect to the speaker so as to make him feel at ease in saying all that is on his mind without interruption.

A prophetic narration has enjoined us not to cut a speaker off while speaking, because it is a form of disrespect. The Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) said: "Whoever cuts his own Muslim brother off while he is speaking - it is as if he scratched his face." This is because what a speaker requires is that all ears should be turned to what he is saying. But if he has finished his speech, you have the right to ask, shed more light on or repute his sayings.

Apart from the fact that disrupting a speaker doesn't give one a chance to hear what is in the heart of the speaker, it also hurts his feelings to the extent that he may misunderstand. Most speakers respect those who listen to them even if their speech is of not much importance. Imam Ali (a.s.) said: "In the past, I had a brother- in- faith, …he was more eager for keeping quiet than speaking…" It is said in the general moral law that: "The best of speakers is he who listens attentively to others.

He who talks about his own personality, and doesn't think except about his own self is egoistic. A person with such a habit is an ignorant fellow who drags himself to pity.
