Al-Qalam: (4) And indeed, you are of a great moral character.

[Exegesis] His character is magnified due to his extreme endurance of the painful treatment from his people, his excellent opposition to them, and his tactful handling of them.

It is also said: It is the character that Allah Almighty commanded him with in His saying: "Take what is given freely, enjoin what is good, and turn away from the ignorant" (Al-A'raf: 199).

[Narration] On the authority of Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her): Sa'id ibn Hisham asked her about the character of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him), and she said: "His character was the Qur'an. Do you not read the Qur'an? 'Certainly, the believers have succeeded...'"


(5) So you will see and they will see, which of you is the afflicted [by madness].
