Among the essential obligations Islam enjoins Muslims to do is to offer sincere advice to people, whether fellow Muslims or others, in the best manner, so as to spread good and eliminate evil in society.
How many of us have looked to our brothers and sisters in Islam and have seen them straying from the path of Allah, and have turned our faces away? How many of us have seen our brothers erring and said to ourselves, it is none of my business? Well, it is our business, for the Prophet 
has made it our business.
In the Hadeeth (sayings of Prophet, sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam,) related by Tameem Ad-Dari 
the Prophet said, "The religion is (built on) advice." The people listening asked, "To whom?" The Prophet replied, "To Allah, to His Book, to His Messenger, to the leaders of the Muslims, and the common folk." [Al-Bukhari and Muslim]
Naseehah (Advice)
The Prophet equated the entire religion to giving Naseehah, but what exactly is Naseehah? Naseehah is an Arabic word that is usually translated to mean "sincerity" or "sincere advice", but actually embodies every type of virtue. As believers, this statement of the Prophet must be taken to heart. By learning what Naseehah is, we can then act on it and bring about positive changes in ourselves and each other. Naseehah is a wonderful weapon, but like most weapons, if the user does not know how to use it properly, it can cause more harm than good.
