Manners of giving naseeha

['Abd-al Latif]

Peace be upon the seekers of truth.

Can I ask the brothers and sisters to please post any and as much information as you can about giving naseeha? I've seen sometimes people give naseeha in a very hurtful manner but don't realise it and its important to let people know the islamic adab of naseeha.

i think it is like dawah - but to muslims. advising people that they are doing wrong.

 

['Abd-al Latif]

Naseeha is an arabic word and it means sincere good advice, but I mispelt it...its spelt 'Nasihah'

just one question, is it ok for a bro to give nasseha to a sis and vice versa?

This is not a fatwa but it depends on the circumstances cuz there is this ayaah;

....Help ye one another in righteousness and piety, but help ye not one another in sin and transgression: fear Allah: for Allah is strict in punishment.
[Al-Maeda 5:2]
