The summary/theme of the Surah Al-Hujurat : 

The people who lower their voices before God's Messenger are those whose hearts Allah has tested for piety. They will be forgiven and rewarded.Those who call you from behind the chambers do not understand you.

Lesson learned from  Surah Al-Hujurat : 

  1. Don’t precede the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم
  2. Don’t raise your voice in front of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. Im'm M'lik رحمه الله would say: ‘Whoever raises his voice whilst the \u{1E25}ad\u{012B}th of the Messenger of Allah's صلى الله عليه وسلم are being narrated, it is as if he has raised his voice in the presence of the Messenger of Allah's صلى الله عليه وسلم’
  3. All believers are brothers.
  4. If two parties of Muslims are quarrelling, try being the arbitrator and solve the conflict.
  5. Two groups shouldn’t mock each other; it is possible one is better in the sight of Allah's than the other.
  6. Don’t call each other names.
  7. Refrain from thinking bad of other people.
  8. Don’t spy on one another.
  9. Don’t backbite.
  10. We have all been created from one male & one female; our differences in appearance are merely so that we recognise one another.
  11. The best and most honourable in the sight of Allah's is the one with the most taqw'.
