COURTESY Courtesy means polite behavior. It springs from good breeding and kindness of heart. A courteous man is always polite and observes good manners at all occasions. He always respects the feelings of others and does not injure them at any cost.
Courtesy demands that we be polite and pleasant in every field of life. Our religion lays great stress on the need of courtesy. Islam teaches us politeness and good manners in every sphere of life. Muslims greet one another, saying "Assalam-u-Alakum", and they often add some remarks about each other's health and welfare.
Courtesy demands that we should speak gently to everyone. Our words may break a heart or heal it. Courtesy costs nothing but it pays a lot. It consoles the dejected souls. It brings us sincere friends.
Good manners demand that we should wait for our turn. In a crowded bus, we should offer our seat to the women, weak or disabled persons. We should help the blind to cross the road. We should respect humanity in order to make everyday life really comfortable and worth living. Courtesy amply fulfils this need.
