Their bodies are graves for their hearts

Allaah the Mighty and Majestic says:

﴿ إنَّ اللهَ يُسْمِعُ مَنْ يَشَاءُ وَمَا أَنْتَ بِمُسْمِعٍ مَنْ فِى الْقُبُورِ ﴾

Indeed, Allaah causes to hear whom He wills, and you, [O Muhammad], cannot make those in the graves hear. Faatir 35: 22

Imam Ibnu Al-Qayyim رحمه الله said:

He (Allaah) likened those who do not respond to His Messenger ﷺ to the people of the graves, and this is one of the best similes. For their bodies are graves for their hearts; their hearts have died and are buried in their bodies."

Encouraging Them to Do Good, gives them the Reward

Shaykh Al-Islaam Ibnu Taymiyyah رحمه الله said:

Young children:
They are rewarded for the good deeds they do,
Even though the pen (of taklif) is lifted from them regarding bad deeds.

In the scale of the parents' good deeds.

Gentleness cultivates what the sword...

Hearts are not opened by violence, even if bodies yield to it. Rather, they are opened by a gentleness that touches them, a wisdom that perfects speech, and a patience resembling a doctor's patience with the pain of treatment.

How many a strong person knocked on a door and it was not opened, yet a gentle one came with a word, and the doors were opened for him.

"If a thousand fully armed men marched for a need, none would fulfill it except the one who acts gently."

For gentleness cultivates what the sword cannot, and unites what anger disperses.

And Allaah, the Exalted and Mighty, said to Musa and Haarun ( عليهما السلام ), as they were going to the most disbelieving and arrogant people on earth:

﴿فَقُولا لَهُ قَوْلًا لَيِّنًا لَعَلَّهُ يَتَذَكَّرُ أَوْ يَخْشَى﴾ [طه: 44]

But speak to him with gentle words, perhaps he may be reminded or fear. [Taha: 44]

Meaning: Address him with kindness and gentleness, despite him being the tyrannical Pharaoh, in the hope that he may be reminded of the truth or fear it. And this is the greatest evidence that gentleness is commanded even with the most hostile of people towards Allaah, so how much more so with the people of Islaam and virtue?!

And the Prophet ( صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ) was the master of the gentle ones; he would not get angry for himself, nor would he respond to ill-treatment except with good.

Aaishah رضي الله عنها narrated: "A group of Jews entered upon the Messenger of Allaah ﷺ and said: 'As-Samu alaykum' (death be upon you). I understood it, so I said: 'And upon you be death and the curse!'" "Then the Messenger of Allaah ﷺ said: 'O Aaishah, indeed Allaah is Gentle and loves gentleness in all matters.'" "So I said: 'O Messenger of Allaah, did you not hear what they said?'" "He said: 'I (already) said: 'And upon you.'' (meaning, the evil they wished)." Al-Bukhari (6927) and Muslim (2592) transmitted it.

عن عائشة رضي الله عنها قالت: "دخل رهطٌ من اليهود على رسول الله ﷺ فقالوا: السام عليكم. ففهمتُها، فقلت: وعليكم السام واللعنة. فقال رسول الله ﷺ: يا عائشة، إن الله رفيق يحب الرفق في الأمر كله. فقلت: يا رسول الله، أولم تسمع ما قالوا؟ قال: قد قلتُ: وعليكم." أخرجه البخاري (6927)، ومسلم (2592).

The Jews did not say "As-Salaam" (peace), but rather "As-Saam" (death), out of cunning and malice. So Aaishah was quick-witted and responded harshly. Then the Prophet ﷺ cautioned her that a believer should not be provoked, and that responding with gentleness is closer to piety, and that Allaah loves gentleness even in repelling harm, so how much more so in lesser matters?

Virtues of knowledge

1. The reward of Hajj

Abu Umaamah Al-Bahili رضي الله عنه narrated that the Messenger of Allāh صلى الله عليه وسلم said:

من غدا إلى مسجدٍ لا يريدُ إلا أن يتعلَّمَ خيرًا أو يُعلِّمَه، كان له كأجرِ حاجٍّ، تامًّا حجَّتُه

Whoever departs to the Masjid, while not intending except to learn or study good (ie the Deen) or to teach it, he has a reward like a hajj (performance), a complete hajj that he did.
