Be sensitive to the feelings of others! The laws of Islam basically boil down to the rights of the Creator and the creation, and the essence of the rights of creation (huquq al-ibad) is being sensitive to the feelings of others. Before doing, saying, writing or gesturing anything, ensure it does not harm and inconvenience others or hurt their feelings. This should be a believer’s motto in life, even in matters that we may consider as small and trivial. For example, someone made you a cup of tea, but it was not to your liking and hence you were unable to drink it fully. Now, rather than saying you did not like the tea, say that they filled the mug too much and thus you are unable to finish it. This way, you are being sensitive to their feelings.
