Harassing and Insulting Others
12:34:46 2024-06-27 724

This kind of behaviour is usually caused by jealousy and enmity, although it may also be rooted in greed (hasad), avarice (tama'), pride (takabbur), etc. Thus, its source is either the Power of Anger or the Power of Passion, or both. In any case, harassment and. insulting of other Muslims is a major sin, and has been repeatedly condemned both in Quranic verses and traditions:

And those who hurt believing men and believing women, without that they have earned it, they bear the guilt of slander and manifest sin. (33:58)

And in a tradition attributed to the Prophet (peace be upon him and his progeny) we read:

Whoever hurts a believer, hurts me; whoever hurts me, hurts Allah: and whoever hurts Allah is the accursed of Torah, the Gospel, the Psalms, and the Quran. (from Jami' al-akhbar)

On the other hand, stopping someone from harassing and insulting others is a worthy act praised in several traditions, of which the following prophetic hadith is an example.

Whoever removes an annoying hurdle from the path of Muslims, Allah shall write for him a virtue, whose reward is Paradise.
