Keep Smiling, It’s Sunnah

Keep Smiling, It’s Sunnah

Why are you grilling me like that?
I didn’t do anything bad to you. Smile, It’s a charity and it’s free! But make sure you use the miswak or brush your teeth 3x a day, haaaaaaha.
Anyhow, alot of Muslims often look at you like you stole something, so here is a Hadith we should all reflect on.

The Prophet Muhammad
beace upon him said

““Your smile for your brother is charity.” – Fiqh-us-Sunnah,
Their are also health benefits to smiling )

1. Smiling Makes us Attractive
We are drawn to people who smile. There is an attraction factor. We want to know a smiling person and figure out what is so good. Frowns, scowls and grimaces all push people away — but a smile draws them in.

2. Smiling Changes our Mood
Next time you are feeling down, try putting on a smile. There’s a good chance you mood will change for the better. Smiling can trick the body into helping you change your mood.

3. Smiling is contagious
When someone is smiling they lighten up the room, change the moods of others, and make things happier. A smiling person brings happiness with them. Smile lots and you will draw people to you.

4. Smiling Relieves Stress
Stress can really show up in our faces. Smiling helps to prevent us from looking tired, worn down, and overwhelmed. When you are stressed, take time to put on a smile. The stress should be reduced and you’ll be better able to take action.

I end with one last hadith, our beloved Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him said
“Do not abuse anyone…Do not look down upon any good work, and when you speak to your brother, show him a cheerful face”
