3) Shunning mockery due to the saying of the Most High: 'Let not a people ridicule another people; perhaps they may be better than them.' [49:11]

4) Lowering gaze from forbidden things due to the saying of the Most High: 'tell the believing men to lower their gaze' [24:30]

5) Truthfulness of the tongue due to the saying of the Most High: 'And when you speak, be just.' [6:152]

6) Recognizing the blessings of Allah the Most High, upon oneself in order to avoid conceitednessdue to the saying of the Most High: ' Rather, Allah has conferred favour upon you that he has guided you to the faith, if you should be truthful' [49:17]

7) Spending one's wealth on good rather than bad things, due to the saing of the Most High: 'And those who, when they spend, do not so excessively or sparingly' [25:67]

10) Steadfastness upon the way of sunnah and jam'ah, due to the saying of the Most High: ' And, this is My Path, which is straight, so follow it, and donot follow (other) ways, for you will be separated from His way. This has He instructed you that you may become righteous.' [6:153]
