Kindness is integral to a virtuous life.

Being kind and showing mercy towards people, animals, and the environment is necessary for a Muslim. Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) was described as a mercy to the worlds, and we have to follow his example in everything we do to become better Muslims and get closer to Allah. Kindness also brings people together and mends broken relationships, leading to strong bonds of fellowship in the community. 'Dr.Bilal Philips'
