7 prevention tactics to save you from unnecessary heat up arguments

  1. listen with positive expectations, not judgment
  2. ask for information in a nonthreatening manner
  3. when in doubt, leave it out
  4. cool off before you open your mouth
  5. talk ‘now’ not ‘always’
  6. treat the undesired behaviour as an exception, not the rule
  7. take emotions out of technology

Al-Muttaqun

Who are Al-Muttaqun

’this is the book (Al-Quran) whereof there is no doubt, a guidance to those whobatr Al-Muttaqun. Who believe in the Ghaib and perform As-Salat and spend out what we have provided for them (i.e. give zakat, spend on themselves, their parents, children, wives, etc and also give charity to the poor and also in Allah’s cause – Jihad)’

Surah Al-Baqarah ( 2-3).
