What It Means - Day 225

"The one who tells another about something good will have a reward like those of the one who does it."
Muhammad, Hadith

And here's another example drawn the ahadith, the sayings of the Prophet.  There are many things I love about the ahadith, and one of the biggest being the subtle, and often oddly funny, common sense that they display. This particular hadith reminds me of one of my favorite ahadith: "Be easy. Do not be difficult." Not every aspect of our faith has to be so profound that a group of religious scholars argue about it for decades. We are often so quick to share snarky or embarrassing stories, but oddly less likely to share stories of kindness. So, something as simple as sharing kindness are an essential part of the faith.
