LessonsHumility, Gratitude, Goodwill, and Conditional Sentences (Hadith 188–198)Quiz

مَنْ يُحْرَمِ الرِّفْقَ، يُحْرَمِ الْخَيْرَ
Whoever is deprived of gentleness is deprived of good.

Source: مسلم

يُحْرَمْ is a passive present-tense verb in the jussive form: “is deprived.” الرِّفْقَ refers to gentleness, considerate treatment, and using an appropriate manner. Repeating the same verb in both clauses makes the relationship clear: losing gentleness can mean losing important opportunities for good.

Gentleness does not mean hiding the truth or permitting injustice. One can speak firmly when needed, correct errors without humiliation, and choose an approach suitable to the situation. The narration connects the manner of conduct with the good that conduct can achieve.
