naturally human is like a mirror. Most of the time, the treatment you recieve from your friends is actually comes from how well you treat them. whatever you throw at them, they will reflect the same thing. If you treat someone kindly,in most cases he or she, ends up doing the same to you. I tried to experimenting with this for a while ( approximately 1 year).
Each time the congregational prayer ends, everyone will shake hands right? Most people dont put their heart in doing it. The purpose of shaking hands is to tighten the brotherhood among the muslim, however, what happens now is just a custom. Probably most people doing that because everyone does that. You can see, some of people dont even smile when shaking hands, more worst dont even look. Then we better of not shaking hands no more. How would you feel when you are talking to someone while he or she is looking away. irritated? resent? absolutely, no one will feel comfortable. It just need a sincere smile to reach ones heart. I tried to smile force fully to whomI shake hand with, well, He reply with a weird expression on his face. At another time, I sincerely smile when recieving his hands, well he smile delightfully. There is time even when I smile sincerely, I receive no reply I wonder why. Then I comes up with a solution, when shaking hands I hold his hand a bit longer until he see my face. Now ,mostly each time I shake hands I can see the smiling faces of everyone. Thats how I do my experiment.haha
The conclusion is, dont be like a mirror be like a sun that always shine. why? when someone angered you, naturally you will try to take vengence. When you are like a sun, you will give forgiveness. By giving a forgiveness, we hope that Allah will also forgive us, by being kind to others, we hope that Allah will give us His mercy and love. Life is about giving, what you give is what you receive.
if you treat others like you want to be treated, then you already have a noble akhlaq.
p/s= the words naturally I use in this post means sunnatullah, nothing happen but allah has ordain it to happen that way.
