حِكْمَة
This verse teaches us how to convey Allah's message.
ٱدۡعُ إِلَىٰ سَبِيلِ رَبِّكَ بِٱلۡحِكۡمَةِ وَٱلۡمَوۡعِظَةِ ٱلۡحَسَنَةِۖ وَجَٰدِلۡهُم بِٱلَّتِي هِيَ أَحۡسَنُۚ
Invite to the way of your Lord with wisdom and good instruction, and argue with them in a way that is best.
Quran, An-Nahl 16:125
The verse commands to invite to Allah's path using wisdom, meaning the right measure and relevance, and a kind exhortation. It also asks to discuss with others in the best manner, with respect and gentleness. In our daily interactions, we can apply this by choosing our words carefully, listening to the other, and avoiding harshness. The end of the verse reminds that Allah knows those who are guided, which invites us to humility.
Today, before speaking, take a moment to choose a wise and kind word, and if you discuss, keep a respectful tone.
