What are the characteristics that ought not to be in a Muslim? The Qur’an and the sayings of Muhammed (PBUH) make it clear that, Muslims ought not to harbour feelings deceit, jealousy, greed, hatred, treachery, extravagance, miserliness, pride, hypocrisy, vainglory, mockery, falsehood, gossip, scandal-mongering and short temper. • Anybody who speaks a lot will have a lot of mistakes, and those who commit a lot of mistakes will have a lot of sins, and those who have a lot of sins will in the Helfire. • No one will enter Paradise who has even a little bit of pride. • To be virtuous is to be morally upright. Vice is which causes doubts in your mind and which you did not wish to be seen by others. • Miserliness and immorality are two bad qualities, which can never come together in a true believer. • Gossippers and slanderers will never enter Paradise. If any one has any of the following four bad qualities, he is a hypocrite. If he has the only one of these four, there will still be signs of hypocrisy in him until he gets rid of that vice. The four bad qualities are – betrayal of trust, speaking untruth, breaking agreements and shouting foul words during quarrels. Prophet Muhammed (PBUH)
