These preferred men of Allah will be in the Care of Allah on the Day of Judgment."[^6] The Prophet of Islam said: “Allah is Kind on His men and likes those men who are kind to their fellow men."[^7] There are hundreds of such traditions of the Prophet and the Imams that are spread over many compendiums of the sayings of these Infallible Persons*.* The Prophet has seen the Islamic society as a single unit and has asked the followers of the Faith to work for the common good.
Islam is a Gregarious Faith and considers the welfare of individuals as the welfare of the society. It fights against all kinds of selfishness. A true Muslim can never be selfish and will never overlook the rights of others in the society. Friendship for other human beings is a superior quality and it is imbued in the nature of every individual. But with proper training this quality can be made manifest.
Sometimes it may happen that this wonderful quality might totally disappear from the nature of some individuals. This is like other inherent instincts in all human being which start manifesting during early childhood in their rudiments and if they are not properly nourished, they might become dormant or totally recede into the recesses of the individual’s mind. It is the responsibility of the parents to make their children friendly to human beings and generous.
If the parents themselves are generous to others and the children see the shades of generosity in their words and actions, they can naturally follow suit. The responsible and informed parents sometimes describe the plight of the needy people, the poor, the handicapped and old, in the presence of their children. If possible they take out the children to meet these people. They tell the children that these are the deprived people and are in need of support and help.
They provide help to such people in the presence of the children to set a good example for them to emulate when they grow up and are capable of helping others. The parents sometimes describe to the children the unfair tyranny heaped by some people on hapless persons and also the pathetic condition of the unfortunate sufferers. They also talk to their children about the unfortunate orphans who don’t have parents to look after them and they deserve full support from others in the society.
They take their children to the orphanage to meet these kids and sometimes invite some of them to their home.
