Note 1
(1) His statement: “rather, he would smile”: That is, usually. He might laugh, but not to the extent mentioned. As stated in Al-Mirqat. In Al-Alamgiriyyah: The jurist said, “It is recommended for a man to be amicable with people. His speech should be gentle, and his face cheerful with the righteous and the sinful, the Sunni and the innovator, without flattery or speaking in a way that suggests approval of their beliefs.” As stated in As-Sirajiyyah.
