The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said "Throw dirt in the face of flatterers," those who pour accolades upon others, worthy or not, like poets who compose appallingly obsequious poetry praising a tyrant.

Indeed, love of this world falls under legal rulings, such that its acceptability or detriment is based on what it helps one achieve
Shaykh Muhammad Malud al-Yaqubi al-Masawi al-Muratani
Someone once asked Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) the Prophet's wife, about the most wondrous aspect she observed of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). She said "Everything about him was wondrous. But I will say this: when the veiling of the night came, and when every lover went to his lover, he went to be with God." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stood at night in prayer, remembering his lord until his ankles swelled up and tears dripped from his beard. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Death is close to any of you than the strap on his sandals." Somewhere on earth there is a door reserved for each soul, and one day each of us will walk through that door never to return to this life again. Where that door is and when we will walk through it are unknowns that we must live with and prepare for.

Envisioning standing in the Hereafter for judgement has the power to expose the utter waste of irrelevant pursuits. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said "Remember often the destroyer of pleasure," that is death. Remembering death is a spiritual practice that cleanses the heart of frivolousness. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) once passed by a group of Muslims who were laughing heartily, and he said to them, "Mix in your gatherings the remembrance of death." This is not a prohibition against laughter but a reminder that prolonged amusement has the capacity to anesthetize the soul.

Hatred
One should desire for his brother non-Muslim that he enter into the state of submission with his lord (Islam). And for his brother Muslim, he should love for him the continuation of guidance and that he remain in submission.

Wantonness
Images glorifying wantonness are ubiquitous in our times. Even as one drives he or she is accosted by billboard advertisements that show the faces of wantonness: people in ecstatic postures with exaggerated smiles and gaping mouths, showing off their supreme happiness because they own a particular type of car or smoke a certain type of cigarettes or guzzle a special brand of beer - alcohol that destroys lives and the minds. According to advertising theory, when people are constantly exposed to such images, they not only incline toward the product but desire the culture associated with it. Advertises sell a lifestyle that glorifies wantonness and subtly dissuades reflection. All those smiling people on billboards and all those who aim their glances toward them will inevitably die someday and stand before their Maker. This is the ultimate destiny of all human beings. It is this realization that is the slayer of wantonness.

Wantonness
According to Imam Malik, fasting three days out of the month is the best way to maintain a regular engagement with hunger. The fasting regimen known as the Fast of David (Dawud peace be upon him) consists of fasting every other day, with the exception of religion holidays.
Wantonness
One aspect of traditional medicine related to spiritual cosmology - whether the tradition was Greek, Chinese, or Arab - is the belief that too much food harms the spiritual heart and in fact, could kill it. It was commonly believed that people who eat in abundance become hardhearted. Those who consume an abundance of rich foods may literally become "hardhearted" with arterial sclerosis, the hardening of the arteries. ("Sclerotic" means "hard, rigid, or stiff.") Likewise, what happens to the physical heart may parallel what occurs to the spiritual heart.

Wantonness
In societies that are extremely pleased with their standard of living, their extravagance and hubris are obvious. One sign of these conditions is the ease with which people enter debt and live contentedly with it. People are consciously living beyond their means in order to maintain the appearance of affluence.

Miserliness
On the etiology of "miserliness" in Arabic: The word for "cling" in Arabic is masak, which is derived from another Arabic word that means "constipation." Miserly people are those who are unable to let go of something that otherwise poisons them.
Purification of the Heart - Hamza Yusuf
Miserliness: An Islamic ethic for the wealthy is that they exude magnanimity, generosity, and the demeanor of lenience. A hadith (prophetic tradition) recounts that a wealthy individual would instruct his servants when collecting money on his behalf, "if (the debtors) do not have the means, tell them their debts are absolved." When this wealthy man died without any good deeds save his largesse with debtors, according to the hadith, God said to his angels "This man was forgiving of people's transgressions Therefore I forgive him."

Miserliness: When it comes to debt, it is far better for the creditor to be flexible and magnanimous than demanding and unbearable. This is especially true when the creditor is not in need of repayment while the debtor faces hardship
Purification of the Heart - Hamza Yusuf
Miserliness: the sacred law obliges the payment of zakat, charity distributed to the needy. Miserliness in the form of not giving zakat is explicitly forbidden. The same is true with one's obligation to support his wife and children. Even if a couple suffers divorce, the man must still pay child support

Most primitive cultures are...shame-based, which [are] rooted in the fear of bringing shame upon oneself and the larger family. Islam honors the concept of shame and takes it to another level all together - to a rank in which one feels a sense of shame before God. When a person acknowledges that God is fully aware of all that one sees, does, says and thinks, shame is elevated to a higher plane, to the unseen world, where there is no cover...So while Muslims comprise of a shame-based culture, this notion transcends feeling shame before one's family, and admits a mechanism that is not subject to the changing norms of human culture... The nurturing of this realization is a person deters one from engaging in acts that are displeasing to and vulgar. This is the nobility of prophetic teachings.
Shame in Islam doesn't change. The changing norms of human culture change it.

Islam's requirement of respect to the prophets and companions.
The well known civil rights activist Martin Luther King, Jr. said that in order for people to condemn injustice, they must go through four stages. The first stage is that people must ascertain that indeed injustices are being perpetrated...The second stage is to negotiate, that is, approach the oppressor and demand justice. If the oppressor refuses, King said that the third stage is self-purification, which starts with the question: "Are we ourselves wrongdoers? Are we ourselves oppressors?" The fourth stage, then, is to take action after true self-examination, after removing one's own wrongs before demanding justice from others.
