Hadith on Good Manners
Sahih Bukhari Hadith

7. Be kind to a pagan father

*Hadith 8.9 Narrated by Asma bint Abu Bakr (Radhiallah hu Taala
anhaa)*

My mother came to me, hoping (for my favor) during the lifetime of the
Prophet (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam). I asked the Prophet (sallallaahu
alayhi wa sallam), "*May I treat her kindly*?" He replied, "*Yes*." Ibn
'Uyaina said, "Then Allah revealed: '*Allah forbids you not with regards to
those who fought not against you because of religion, and drove you not out
from your homes, that you should show them kindness and deal justly with
them*.'..... ..(60.8)"

*8. The kindness of a married lady to her mother*

*Hadith 8.10 Narrated by Abu Sufyan (Radhiallah hu Taala anhu)*

That Heraclius sent for him and said, "What did he, i.e. the Prophet
(sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam), order you?" I replied, "*He orders us to
offer prayers; to give alms; to be chaste; and to keep good relations with
our relatives*."

*9. Be kind to a pagan brother*

*Hadith 8.11 Narrated by Ibn Umar (Radhiallah hu Taala anhu)*

My father, seeing a silken cloak being sold, said, "O Allah's Apostle
(sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam)! *Buy this and wear it on Fridays and when
the foreign delegates pay a visit to you." He said, "This is worn only by
that person who will have no share in the Hereafter*." Later a few silken
cloaks were given to the Prophet (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) as a gift,
and he sent one of those cloaks to 'Umar. 'Umar said (to the Prophet
(sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam)), "How can I wear it while you have said
about it what you said?" The Prophet (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) said, "*I
did not give it to you to wear but to sell or to give to someone else to
wear." So 'Umar sent it to his (pagan) brother who was from the inhabitants
of **Makkah** before he ('Umar's brother) embraced Islam.*
