Kindness in Islam
As SalamualaikumMy question is, my brother speaks to me and to almost all the women in my family, , two other sisters, sister in law, cousins, etc, in a very harsh manner. He talks down to us , yet he practices islam and he is a fairly good muslim. But he thinks men are a degree above women so much so that he talks so harshly to us. Is this appropriate behavior? In Pakistan, boys are favored more than girls, is this alright in Islam also? Him being a man, does it make him right always and give him the authority to do this to me? I am married with kids, yet he speaks to me as if I were a street girl. He literally "orders" us around or thinks he knows everything. Isnt there anything in Islam that says be kind to your sisters?
