A general reminder to muslims who stigmatise, make fun of, laugh at or feel uncomfortable in the presence of deformed, unfortunate looking, perhaps disabled but in the end those considered to be 'ugly' people.
We shouldn't look down upon those people who have been unfortunate enough to be facing such a hardship. Allah is the one that is trying them in that manner and they must have faced extreme harrassment from ignorant people their whole lives and then for us as muslims to mock them on top of that?
It is not befitting the adab of muslims. It shows contempt of Allah, for Allah is the one who has fashioned those unfortunate people in that manner.
Does anyone know the story of Julaybib Radi Allah Anhu?
Mocking is unfortunate jahil behaviour. Very bad adab and speaks volumes about a person's character.
A polite reminder to you all. Say Alhamdulilah for what Allah has not tried you with. Never mock others.
There is no need for people to judge peoples looks, who says these people are ugly maybe they are a beauty within themselves. And always know allah is watching and listening and can change everything
I agree. It's a shame to see some people stoop that low in that, they feel they have the right to condemn "ugly" people. I don't even like the word 'ugly'. It's such a negative word.
Come to think of it, the only time I'll use 'ugly' is when it comes to fashion :P
i even hate the word ugly.. i use to use it alot before i became a muslim but now ive changed obviously anyway i think the one who calls others ugly they are ugly themselves

I agree. Those who call others ugly are themselves insecure about themselves, or just don't appreciate that they are more fortunate than others. Aside from that everyone is unique and equally beautiful, no matter how they look, it's what's inside that counts. Nobody should be looked down upon in the situation.

you used to use it to make others cry or did you used to use it to make yourself cry?
You get reward for being good to Allah's creation.
In Julaybib, there is the example of a person who was almost regarded as a social outcast because of his appearance. Given help, confidence and encouragement by the noble Prophet, he was able to perform acts of courage and make the supreme sacrifice and deserve the commendation of the Prophet: "He is of me and I am of him."

For someone to make fun of others' looks he is actually make fun of Allah's creation, hence mocking Allah Himself...Astaghfirullah!
I see many muslims call people ugly all the time or judge people cos they are not fair skinned because thats suposidly meant 2mke sum1 better looking. It annoys me, its insulting Allahs creation

Everyone is beautiful...EVERYONE! Especially all of you! Were are all created by God, so we must be beautiful. To make fun of or insult one Gods creations, would almost be like saying God messed up. Pleasssssssssssee, God has never messed up. Perfect in every way is our God.
God be with you......stay pretty....or handsome ....sorry dudes, wouldn't want to call you pretty.lol

Agreed 100%. About your last statement, even men can be absolutely beautiful inside and out.
To some Allah swt has made beautiful to some he made disable etc etc but each person possess good within themselves and that Is a favor of Allah swt on his creations.
We look at the good of the person and not judge them by their outer appearances.When we see anyone with a disability etc we say Alahumdulillah that Allah swt has blessed us as we are and make dua for the disable person.
Due to the trial they maybe going through will earn them Jannah InshaAllah and if we scoff them and do not accept them what will that earn us?
We just need to picture us in the other persons shoes,only then will we grateful.
Abu Hurairah reported that the Prophet, peace be upon him, said: “If one sees an afflicted person and says, ‘Praise and thanks be to Allah Who has saved me from what he has afflicted you with, and has honored me over many of His creatures,’ he will be saved from that affliction.” (Reported by Tirmidhi, who considers it sound)
An-Nawawi states that the scholars said, “One should say the above mentioned supplication inaudibly so that the afflicted person should not hear it, lest he should be grieved by it. But if the affliction is the result of his sinful conduct then there is no harm in his listening if he is not heedful of evil.”
