The primary mission of the Prophet (صلى الله عليه و سلم) having brought Islam to the Muslims was to instill good character within them in every aspect of their lives. Abu Huraira (رضي الله عنه‎) reported: The Messenger of Allah, (صلى الله عليه و سلم), said: Verily, I have only been sent to perfect righteous character. [Musnad Aḥmad 8729, Grade: Sahih]


Good character is the result of a pure heart that is free from spiritual diseases like envy, malice, and arrogance. A person with good character has integrity and is not overly attached to worldly things at the expense of righteousness. Abdullah ibn Amr (رضي الله عنه‎) reported: It was said to the Messenger of Allah, “Which of the people is best?” The Messenger of Allah, (صلى الله عليه و سلم), said: Everyone who is pure of heart and truthful in speech.

Shaykh Hamza Yusuf talks about the ways to perfect your character.

    Generally I feel English is a very direct and communicative language. However when Shaikh speaks, it sounds like poetry that touches one's heart. May Allah bless you in this world and the real world. Blessed to be able to hear you

    🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 📚 The primary concern in Islam is refining the heart, which is emphasized in the Quran as the basis of human benefit. 👂 Guarding the ears from negative influences is crucial, as hearing has a profound impact on the heart's purity. 👁️‍🗨️ The eye reflects the heart's state and must be protected to maintain spiritual purity. 🗣️ The tongue's power is immense, serving as the interpreter of the heart, and must be restrained to avoid harm. 💭 Belief originates in the heart and evolves into conviction, shaping one's actions and worship. 🕌 Islam emphasizes a balance between human's animalistic and angelic natures, urging purity in desires and honoring the gift of speech. 📜 The Quran's profound teachings challenge believers to deeply understand and internalize its message rather than merely romanticizing it. 🌍 Muslims should strive to guide and transform societies towards righteousness rather than desiring their destruction, recognizing the potential for greatness in humanity.

    People need to translate his lectures into their native tongues to benefit their nations. For example I am not proficient in Urdu but I would love to be, so I could translate these lectures into Urdu. The poor people in our countries are more intelligent but it's squandered and wasted because they get little to no access to anything outside of their own country's scholars. It's a blessing to be able to access all kinds of info and insights from scholars around the world who all study different things and have different ways of conveying message, its a blessing, and all cause i understand English
