The Last Prophet (sa) of Allah (swt) stated: 'He who amongst you sees something
abominable should modify it with the help of his hand; and if he has not
strength enough to do that, then he should do it with his tongue; and if he has
not strength enough to do even that, then he should (at least abhor it) from
his heart; and that is the least of faith' [Sahih Muslim]
