Description
Dr. Omar Suleiman explores the second defining quality of Ibad ur-Rahman (Servants of the Most Merciful): those who embody forbearance (hilm) and composure when confronted by ignorance or provocation.
“When the ignorant address them, they only respond with peace.” — Qur’an 25:63
What does it mean to stay calm when you’re tested? How do we respond to rudeness, mockery, or anger without losing our dignity? Through stories of the Prophet ﷺ and the early believers, Dr. Omar Suleiman reveals that this verse is not about remaining silent in the face of oppression, but about rising above the foolish, refusing to be drawn into their heat, and maintaining moral strength when emotions run high.
