Hadith
The believers with the most perfect faith are those with the most perfect conduct and manners. And the best ones amongst you are those who are best to their families.(Al-Tirmidhi)
Let whosoever believes in Allah and in the Last Day either speak good or be silent. Let whosoever believes in Allah and in the Last Day honor his neighbor. Let whosoever believes in Allah and in the Last Day honor his guest. (Bukhari)
On the Day of Resurrection, nothing will be heavier in the scale (of good deeds) of the believer than good conduct. God hates the one who swears and hurls obscenities.(Abu Dawud, Al-Tirmidhi)
