And in the Hadith from the Prophet (sallallahu 'alayhi wa-sallam), he said:
"The most firm of the ties of al-Iman (faith) is allegiance for Allah's sake and enmity for Allah's sake, and love for Allah's sake and hatred for Allah's sake
may allah truly give us the understanding of this..
as to what we do and why..
PATIENCE AT THE WRONG TIMES IS NEITHER ADVISED NOR ADVISABLE.IN FACT ITS TANTAMOUNT TO IGNORANCE AND STUPIDITY.THE MOMIN NEITHER DISGRACES NOR ALLOWS HIMSELF TO BE DISGRACED
And Ibn 'Abbas (radiyallahu 'anhuma) said: "Whoever loves for Allah and hates for Allah and has allegiance for Allah and has enmity for Allah, then he will thereby reach the stage of Allah's Wilayah (protection, allegiance).

And a Muslim slave [of Allah] will never taste the sweetness of al-Iman, even if he has an abundance of Salah and fasting, until he is like that.

Indeed, the friendship of the majority of people has come to be based on worldly affairs, and that does not benefit its people." [Narrated by Ibn Jareer
The Prophet has described : "You find the Muslims in their mutual love and compassion, like one body, should any organ of it fall ill, the rest of the body will share in the fever and sleeplessness that ensues", (al-Bukhari)
The bond of brotherhood is like a contract, because it confers certain rights and responsibilities between brothers, and Islam has laid down these rights and responsibilities. In all these comprise of six duties:
The first duty is to render personal aid in the satisfaction of needs, as indicated by the Prophet (s.a.w.); "If one of you goes with your brother to help him fulfill his duty, and then the Prophet made a small sign with his fingers and added, that is better for him than making a i'takif in my mosque for two months", (narrated by al-Hakim).
A Muslim in the early days would see to the maintenance of his brothers wife and children after his bothers death, attending to their needs, visiting them daily, inquiring on what they need
This is how brotherhood and compassion is shown. If a man does not manifest compassion towards his brother in the same degree as to himself, then there is no good in it.
The Prophet (s.a.w.) has said: "those who help a Muslim in hardship in this world, will be protected by Allah from suffering hardship in the Hereafter....Allah will help his servants as long as they help their fellow Muslim brothers", (narrated by Muslim and Abu-Daud).
The second duty concerns the tongue, which should sometimes be silent and at other times speak out.
As for silence, the tongue should not mention a brother's faults in his absence.
Rather you should feign ignorance. You should not dispute nor argue with him, you should not criticise him, accuse him of anything or quiz him about his affairs.
You should not be suspicious, for suspicion is the most untruthful report and suspicion leads to prying and spying.
The Prophet (s.a.w.) has said: "those who help a Muslim in hardship in this world, will be protected by Allah from suffering hardship in the Hereafter....Allah will help his servants as long as they help their fellow Muslim brothers", (narrated by Muslim and Abu-Daud).
And Ibn 'Abbas (radiyallahu 'anhuma) said: "Whoever loves for Allah and hates for Allah and has allegiance for Allah and has enmity for Allah, then he will thereby reach the stage of Allah's Wilayah (protection, allegiance).
