Honesty is a divine virtue. All people do not possess this virtue. The man who possesses this quality is the luckiest person in the world. To be honest, man should have trustworthiness. Because nobody trusts a liar. Everybody hates him. All respect an honest man. Honesty can never be bought. It is a rare quality which is inherent in men. Wealth is not only means of happiness in life. Honesty leads to success and happiness. The ignorant only follow dishonest ways. They want to gain their objects within a short time. But they do not attain their goal in the long run. They live in anxiety. They can never be happy in life. An honest man may fall into suffering for the time being, but in the long run, he may overcome problems. Besides, Allah also helps honest people. It is a quality of great people. So, children should be taught honesty from the very beginning of life. Without it, peace and happiness in life are impossible. In fact, honesty is the best policy.
