Are we the best that we could be?

Enlightening lecture by Mufti Ismail Menk of Zimbabwe explaining the importance of good character and the best social conduct practices for a Muslim.

Have we been trying to be the best that we could be in all aspects of our lives?

"All people are good but shaytan is bad. So those who allow shaytan to get the better of them, the worst of them will remain (what is worst in them will stay). And those who disallow shaytan from taking that which is good, insha Allah the good will remain."

"O Son of Adam, when you were born, you came into this world crying. And those around you were smiling in happiness. So live your life in such a way that when you die, you would leave this world smiling and those around you will be crying at their loss"
