It is important to note that we must remain patient even if our advice is to someone clearly choosing to go down the wrong path. Our Prophet (Peace and blessings be upon him) had relatives who did not accept Islam, yet he was the most profound example of being patient and intended for positive discourse even if the behavior of his relatives was frustrating/grieving to him. It is critical for us to always stick to our deen and to abstain from judging anyone through it – some discussions may not have one answer so we should remain humble as Shaykh Yasir Qadhi once said that ‘Allah might forgive someone for their ignorance and punish the other person for their arrogance.’ Our Prophet (Peace and blessings be upon him) gave his full attention in conversations, and spoke succinctly, beautifully, and gently.

I don’t like what you are doing, but I won’t insult you for it. You know why? Because who you are tomorrow may be better than who I am today.
