It was a regular routine of the Messenger of Allah peace be upon him, that whenever he delegated or appointed some one to a place to promote Islam he taught them some precious advices in teaching " Give glad tidings to people, facilitate things for them and do not be harsh but be gentle do not make people run away" The great teacher of humanity knew that harshness, and boredom can make your students flee and tolerance as well as pardoning is the best way to show gentleness.
H e repeated a phrase often, before is one of his best student, his beloved wife, who later became one of the finest teacher of Islam : Aisha! If kindness is added to anything it beautifies it and if kindness it removed from something it uglifies it...Most of us remember our school teachers who were kind and gentle, but rash and harsh teachers pass away from our memories swiftly with time, even if they taught their academic subjects properly.
How important and neccesary is kindess and gentle ness? Study this Hadith : Allah gives for kindness what he does not give for harshness. (Tirmidhi sahih)
Note this hadith too : If Allah wants to do good to some one he bestows upon him kindness (Sahih Tirmidhi)
Once he supplicated : O Allah ! make easy for the person who facilitates for my Ummah and make things hard for the one who makes things hard upon my ummah !!
Every Prophet was moulded with kindness and that made them the best teachers of their time. Kindess is seen and felt in eveyr action. One of the noble habits of the Prophet peace be upon him, when ever he spoke, at times he repeated it three times for the people to understand. Whenever people commited errors he exaplained them kindly and tolerated them. Tolerance and pardoning are the pillars of kindness.
This note is important for all the readers lest some one thnk that he is not not teaching. Every one of us is a teacher. We teach our children, our juniors, our servants, our audience our readers....How we teach reflects our personalities and it also results in the response.
