"I never saw her admonish anyone or get angry with them. If she ne eded to say anything she would say it with great wisdom. In the house with servants, other ladies of good families. . . and the various people who lived downstairs. . . if ever any unpleasant incident occurred , she would patiently overlook the episode. " 85 Hadrat Amman Jan's ra granddaughter , Sahibzadi Amatul Mateen , relate d that her grandmother was always polite and encouraged this etiquette in them from a young age. She recall ed that she once came to her grandmother's house and Hadrat Amman Jan ra enquired if her father (Hadrat Musleh Mau ’ ud ra ) was sleeping. She replied that he had "got up ". Hadrat Amman Jan ra gently rebuked her that she should have used the politer term "woken up " rather than “ got up ” about her father. Similarly, Hadrat Amman Jan ra would gently advise the ladies in the Community to use polite speech. Once, a lady came to her to request Hadrat Amman Jan ra to pray for her son. He had passed his medical exam two years previously but was still at home despite this and the mother remarked that he was , " C ompletely useless and unemployed. " Hadrat Amman Jan ra corrected the lady , " He is not useless. He serves the family of the Promised Messiah as. This is a blessed opportunity from Allah Almighty. Y es , he is unemployed, but Allah Almighty will indeed give him employment. " 85 “ Sirato Sawaneh Hadrat Amman Jan” Prof. S. N. Saeed, p334, quoted from Misbah , special number 140
