Naseeha

Naseeha (نصيحة ) Naṣīḥa is the Arabic word for advice. It can also mean recommendation or sincerity (particularly in Islamic contexts). The Islamic prophet Muhammad described deen (religion) as naseehah (advice, sinceerity, good councel).[1] Seeking naseeha is mostly looked upon positively, as an act of devotion rather than a lack of it or of knowledge. Though one might be rebuked or scolded during the process, it will most likely be for the advisor to impress the point. Naseeha is common in order to ensure one is properly applying the teachings of Islam.
