1. Praying for someone who does good to you
Praying for the one who treats you kindly
by saying “Jazak Allaahu khayran”
It was narrated that Usaamah ibn Zayd (may
Allaah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace be upon him)
said:
“Whoever has a
favour done for him and says to the one who did it, ‘Jazak Allaahu khayran,’
has done enough to thank him.”[2]
2. Shaking hands with the opposite gender
It is not permissible for a man to shake
the hands of a non – mahram[3] woman.
Narrated Ma’qal ibn Yassaar (may Allaah be
pleased with him) who said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace be upon him) said:
“If one of you
were to be struck in the head with an iron needle, it would be better for him
than if he were to touch a woman he is not allowed to.”[4]

3. Drinking
It is permissible to drink, however it is
better to drink while sitting.
Narrated Aboo Hurayrah (may Allaah be
pleased with him): Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) said:
“None of you
should drink while standing; and if anyone forgets, he must vomit.”[5]
Narrated Ibn 'Abbas (may Allaah be pleased
with him):
“The Prophet
(peace be upon him) drank Zam-Zam (water) while standing.”[6]
Narrated An-Nazzal (may Allaah be pleased
with him): All came to the gate of the courtyard (of the Mosque) and drank
(water) while he was standing and said,
“Some people
dislike to drink while standing, but I saw the Prophet (peace be upon him)
doing (drinking water) as you have seen me doing now.”[7]
Imam Nawawee (may Allaah have mercy on
him) said:
“There is no
contradiction in these ahaadeeth, praise be to Allaah, and none of them are
da’eef (weak). Rather they are all saheeh. The correct view is that the
forbidding mentioned in them is to be understood as meaning that it is
disliked. The fact that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)
drank whilst standing indicates that it is permissible to do so. This is all
that needs to be said on the matter.”[8]

4. Sneezing
When someone sneezes, they should praise
Allah by saying ‘Alhamdulillah’ (Praise
be to Allaah.
If you here someone sneezing and praising
Allah, you should ask Allah to bestow His Mercy on them by saying ‘Yarhamukallaah’ (May Allaah
bestow His Mercy on you).
If someone says this to you, you should
reply, ‘Yahdeekumullaahu wa yuslihu
baalakum’ (May Allah give you guidance and improve your condition).
Narrated Aboo Hurayrah (may Allaah be
pleased with him): The Prophet (peace be upon him) said,
“If anyone of
you sneezes, he should say 'Al-Hamdulillah' (Praise be to Allah), and his
(Muslim) brother or companion should say to him, 'Yar-hamuka-l-lah' (May Allah
bestow his Mercy on you). When the latter says 'Yar-hamuka-llah", the
former should say, 'Yahdikumul-lah wa Yuslih balakum' (May Allah give you
guidance and improve your condition).”[9]

5. Greeting
It is the duty of all muslims to great
each other by sayin ‘As-Salaamu
'alaykum’ (peace be upon you)
Narrated Aboo Hurayrah (may Allaah be
pleased with him): The Prophet (peace be upon him) said,
“Allah created
Adam, making him 60 cubits tall. When He created him, He said to him, ‘Go and
greet that group of angels, and listen to their reply, for it will be your
greeting (salutation) and the greeting (salutations) of your offspring.’ So,
Adam said (to the angels), As-Salamu Alaikum (i.e. Peace be upon you). The
angels said, "As-salamu Alaika wa Rahmatu-l-lahi" (i.e. Peace and
Allah's Mercy be upon you). Thus the angels added to Adam's salutation the
expression, 'Wa Rahmatu-l-lahi,' Any person who will enter Paradise will resemble
Adam (in appearance and figure). People have been decreasing in stature since
Adam's creation.”[10]
6. Eating with the right hand
Muslims should always eat and drink with
their right hands only.
Narrated Ibn ‘Umar (may Allaah be pleased
with him): Allaah's Messenger (peace be upon him) as saying:
“When any one
of you intends to eat (meal), he should eat with his right hand. and when he
(intends) to drink he should drink with his right hand, for the Satan eats with
his left hand and drinks with his left hand.”[11]
7. Saying Bismillah before eating
It is Sunnah to say ‘Bismillaah’ (In The Name Of
Allaah)
Narrated 'Umar bin Abi Salama (may Allaah
be pleased with him): I was a boy under the care of Allah's Apostle (peace be
upon him) and my hand used to go around the dish while I was eating. So Allah's
Apostle (peace be upon him) said to me,
“O boy! Mention
the Name of Allah and eat with your right hand, and eat of the dish what is
nearer to you." Since then I have applied those instructions when eating.”[12]

8. What to say after eating
After eating, it is Sunnah to say ‘Alhamdu lillaahi hamdan katheeran tayyiban
mubaarakan feehi, ghayra makfiyyin wa laa muwadda'in, wa laa mustaghnan 'anhu
Rabbanaa’ (All praise is to Allah, praise in abundance, good and
blessed. It cannot be compensated for, nor can it be left, nor can it be done
without, our Lord)
Narrated Aboo Umama (may Allaah be pleased
with him): Whenever the dining sheet of the Prophet was taken away (i.e.,
whenever he finished his meal), he used to say:
“Al-hamdu
lillah kathiran taiyiban mubarakan fihi ghaira makfiy wala muwada' wala
mustaghna'anhu Rabbuna.”[13]

9. Respecting Parents
We should always respect our parents.
Allah, the Most High, says in the Qur’aan:
“And your Lord has decreed that you
worship none but Him. And that you be dutiful to your parents. If one of them
or both of them attain old age in your life, say not to them a word of
disrespect, nor shout at them but address them in terms of honour. And lower
unto them the wing of submission and humility through mercy, and say: "My
Lord! Bestow on them Your Mercy as they did bring me up when I was small.”[14]
Narrated Mu’aawiyah ibn Jaahimah (may
Allaah be pleased with him) came to the Messenger of Allaah (peace be upon him)
and said:
“O Messenger of
Allaah, I want to go and fight (in jihad) and I have come to consult you.”
He said, “Do you have a mother?”
He said, “Yes.”
He said, “Stay with her for Paradise is at her feet.”[15]

10. Lying and Cheating
It is not permissible to lie and cheat in
Islaam
i. Lying
Narrated ‘Abdullah (may Allaah be pleased
with him): The Prophet (peace be upon him) said,
“Truthfulness
leads to righteousness, and righteousness leads to Paradise. And a man keeps on
telling the truth until he becomes a truthful person. Falsehood leads to
Al-Fajur (i.e. wickedness, evil-doing), and Al-Fajur (wickedness) leads to the
(Hell) Fire, and a man may keep on telling lies till he is written before
Allah, a liar.”[16]
Narrated Samura bin Jundub (may Allaah be
pleased with him): The Prophet (peace be upon him) said,
“I saw (in a
dream), two men came to me." Then the Prophet narrated the story (saying),
‘They said, ‘The person, the one whose cheek you saw being torn away (from the
mouth to the ear) was a liar and used to tell lies and the people would report
those lies on his authority till they spread all over the world. So he will be
punished like that till the Day of Resurrection.’”[17]

ii. Cheating
Narrated Aboo Hurayrah (may Allaah be
pleased with him): The Prophet (peace be upon him) happened to pass by a heap
of eatables (corn). He thrust his hand in that (heap) and his fingers were
moistened. He said to the owner of that heap of eatables (corn):
“What is this?”
He replied: “Messenger of Allah, these have been drenched by rainfall.”
He (peace be upon him) remarked: “Why did you not place this (the drenched
part of the heap) over other eatables so that the people could see it? He who
deceives is not of me (is not my follower).”[18]
And It is Only
Allah Who grants success. May Allah Exalt the mention of His slave and
Messenger Muhammad, and render him, his household and companion safe from Evil.
