The qualities that form the foundation of all other human qualities are called foundation qualities. As we are Muslim, qualities should be based on the holy Quran and the Sunnah.The holy Quran is the complete code of life for everybody irrespective religious identity. This holy Book has been revealed from Almighty Allah to the final and latest of the Messengers, Hazrat Muhammad (SM) ,the reflection of the Quran, He is the idol of human being. Of them we get several qualities mentioned which are prerequisite of process being a complete mankind. The qualities found in the Quran and Sunnah are I’man, truthfulness, punctuality, discipline, patience, honesty, perseverance and wholeheartedness and so on. These qualities define who we are as human beings. I shall briefly describe in this publication.
- I’man: Islam is one and only accepted as religion to Allah. Allah will judge the people who surrender to Allah without any question. The men who will believe in six ideologies (Allah, Angels, Scriptures, Allah’s Messengers, the life after death and Takdir) are called Imandar. They will be allowed for judgement to Zannah and Zahannam. The rest people will be fuel for Zahannam without judgement because they don’t open account to store their good deeds in earthly life.
- Truthfulness: Truth works as individuals and to society as a whole. As individuals, being truthful means that we can grow and mature, learning from our mistakes. For society, truthfulness makes social relationship. Truthfulness escapes us from adversity.
- Punctuality: Punctuality is a great necessary in all walks of life. Punctuality should be nurtured and cultured from early age and observed strictly in all affairs of our lives.It makes any complication easy and normal.
- Discipline: Discipline means obedience to law and order. It is necessary to obey the rules of discipline because human progress depends on it. The necessities of discipline have become greater now. Again life without discipline means a life full of chaos.
- Patience: Patience enables us to analyze things and situations beyond their net value. The resourcefulness, calm, and empathetic behavior and self-control of patient people can make them very popular. It also gives us inner peace and the ability to keep smiling despite challenges.
- Honesty: Honesty is the quality of always speaking the truth and being totally authentic, straightforward, and transparent in our words and actions. It involves a few key practices:- never lying, never hiding the truth, and never purposefully omitting or misdirecting people from the truth.
- Perseverance: Perseverance helps us make progress even when things we get tough which is vital for future success. When we work toward our goals and dreams, there will be obstacles and setbacks but if we are persevere, we’ll make progress and learn a skill that will pay off in the long run.
- Wholeheartedness: Wholeheartedness is realizing the powerful impact we have on the planet, other creatures, and other people. We positively impact our world by minimizing environmental damage, volunteering, and donating to worth the reasons.
