اش emerge that the signs of piety as when you go soft on people when you learn to love when you want to correct someone with goodness a man came and peed in the masjid at the time of the Prophet Allah's Sallam. I can't even imagine it happening today. So the sahab Allah Allah and who got so cross and angry they started shouting him and they wanted to literally attack him. And the Prophet Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says, Lata sMuruluhu don't do that to him. Don't attack him, don't harm him, stop it leave him, let him finish his thing. and I always think to myself, ایمانجن how powerful that is the guy is peeing how can you stop a guy who is already started peeing I am not asking you to try it but imagine it you start peeing and next thing you have to stop what are you going to do someone say stop he say how do I stop it is coming out man Allah akram akham Allah hu jamyan Allah protect all of us so the Prophet Salallahu ala salam the masjid he saying a leave the guy alone let him do his thing you guys go and get a bucket of water and pour the water on him imagine the Prophet Salallahu ala salam he stopped the companions from even shouting this guy

don't shout him this is not the time to shout why this is not the time to shout and when they went he sees the opportunity with love he says you know what this is a masjid it's the house of Allah this place is for decro la for sala for Qur'an for ibadah it's not for this type of thing and this man now imagine the contrast of moments ago people wanted to literally jump on him and here's the messenger himself sallallahu alayhi wa sallam speaking so nicely to him he says have mercy on me have mercy on Muhammad sallallahu alayhi salam and don't have mercy on anyone else now there's a new problem why because the mercy of Allah is broader than your statement so the Prophet sallallahu ala salam tells him you know what you are trying to make narrow something that is very broad which means you can't do that mercy will be for everyone come on you know and today if someone made a mistake don't worry don't chill you know what take it easy process it

correct it properly correct it with tact i'm not saying don't correct it correct it in a nice way
