Such kindness is the primary obligation of any human being, and anything contrary is surprising. Yes, it is, in fact, surprising, despite being the procedure for many people. What people do is not proof. Is it not true that: “… most of the people do not know” (Al-A’raf, Verse 187).

They are happy with evil deeds and are satisfied with malicious lies. Those who are wavering in their paths and devious upon their manners.”
In the “Analects of Confucius,” it is said: “People may go towards a path and follow it, but never comprehend it and have no knowledge on it.”
In the Gospel of Matthew, section 5, it says: “be happy and have grave merriment, because your reward in the sky is tremendous.”
In the book “Zend of Avesta,” Epistle of Dinai Minuk Kherad, it states: “The delight above all other delights is the health of body, liberation from fear, good reputation, and spruce behavior.”
