Assalaamu ‘alaikum – peace be with you.

Affability is defined as the ability to make other people feel comfortable and at ease. It requires being more approachable and friendlier in our interactions both from a verbal and non-verbal perspective and resonates a feeling of warmth, kindness and good nature to those around us. It is an inner spiritual quality that softens hearts and manifests in a gentle, respectful and compassionate demeanour. It does not require going as far as flattery but rather being good-natured, polite and amicable in our relations and connections.

At Inspirited Minds we understand the importance of affability in creating an environment which allows others to be more open with the difficulties and struggles they may be going through. We pray we can all embed the trait of affability in all that we do; allowing us to become better natured, improving our character and allowing us to create deeper more meaningful relationships. And as always, we are open to your comments, ideas, and suggestions, so please do get in touch by replying to this email.

Du’as always,
Talat
