It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Gentleness and kindness are a source of blessing, and harshness and clumsiness are an ill omen."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from al-Mu'alla except Muhammad, and Isma'il is alone in narrating it."
