I find it touching that God doesn& #39;t refer to people as "neighbours and strangers", but rather as "near neighbours and far neighbours".

No one is a stranger, everyone is a neighbour to us, and accordingly they all have rights over us.

"None of you has faith until he loves for humanity what he loves for himself."

– Prophet Muhammad ﷺ

In the translation of the ayah above, I think "be good" is not entirely accurate.

It says something closer to "act with ihsan", which is much more than merely doing good.

Act with *excellence* - motivated by the perfection of God (rather than taqwa: acting out of fear of God).
