As a religion, Islam promotes the idea of good character as is evident from its canonical texts. The Quran describes Muhammad as being 'on exalted quality of character' (68:4) and refers to him as 'an excellent example' (33:21) which ultimately means that the religious and moral examples, set by Muhammad, are to be followed and cultivated by the Muslims in order to construct a morally good character.[1] Muslim moralists have discussed the ethico-religious importance of having a good character as well as the ways of acquiring it.
