Good character is not what you show to those around you while you are calm, happy and being well treated. The real measure of noble character is that you always remain yourself … firm on your good demeanor, patience, goodness and generosity. This will keep you above any degenerate behaviour even when you find yourself in difficult situations and those which weigh on your soul.
The qualities of the best among the creation do not change, even if their circumstances and places change.
So the generous one remains generous even if he becomes poor,
The noble one remains noble even if he is defeated,
The good one remains good even if he is treated unfairly,
They all show servitude to Allah through this good character. Rather, their hearts long to be close to the Prophet (s.a.w), for whoever is best in character will be closer to the Prophet (s.a.w) than others.
