Gentleness, mildness, respect, humility, modesty, 
self-denial, conscientiousness, tolerance and forgiveness 
are considered by the Sufi as the attributes which produce harmony within one's own soul as well as within that 
of another. Good deeds, kindness, forgiveness, tolerance, acts of love, none of these are ever lost, and some day they will return to us.
