🗒️ Seven ways that INTJ personality types and INFJs are different, despite their general potential to become good friends as they're both future-oriented, intuitive, selectively curious, insightful, and focused on the big picture:
1] INTJs are generally thick-skinned and unafraid of criticism. INFJs can be somewhat sensitive and it may take a while for them to emotionally heal after their feelings have been hurt.
2] INTJs when trying to accomplish tasks or complete projects would try their best to get done with them even if their choices may upset some individuals. Efficiency is more important to them than sparing people's emotions. INFJs in contrast would do what they can to ensure that each action they take doesn't negatively impact anybody in their group, team, or workplace.
3] INTJs in social settings would avoid doing anything which contradicts their values. With stubbornness they won't attempt to change their overall behavior to impress people, unless they're talking to somebody whom they genuinely care about.
INFJs have a tendency to treat every individual according to their temperament, personality, and level of familiarity. They're willing to kindly adjust their conduct or attitude based on who they're interacting with.
4] When offering advice, an INTJ would likely start their statements with "If I were you..." or "if I was in your situation..." and provide useful suggestions, straightforward feedback, or quick solutions according to what they truly believe is most logical, reasonable, and rational. An INFJ would typically put themselves in your shoes when advising, or suggest the most idealistic methods for you to handle your problems, or listen patiently to your complaints and show empathy.
5] When an INTJ resolutely decides to cease a connection or transaction with you, or when they've cancelled their interest in wanting to be more than mere acquaintance, their dismissal has nothing to do with wounded feelings but they can't find any logic, purpose, or significant value in your association. An INFJ on the other hand would "door slam" or completely detach from those who took their feelings for granted, who were intolerably inconsiderate, and who didn't reciprocate their loyalty and integrity.
6] INTJs can be a lot more tolerant and patient with their families and loved ones, while being aloof, indifferent, or distrustful around strangers. A number of INFJs are more able to have patience with strangers than with family members whom they consider toxic or uncooperative.
7] While both INTJs and INFJs (the healthy types) intensely abhor gossiping, INTJs refrain from discussing people's flaws because they think it's illogical to mock others' demerits when you yourself likewise have imperfections. INFJs (the mature ones) dislike backbiting because seeing others get mistreated upsets them, specially if they can't do much to stop the rumors, or they can imagine themselves being the next subjects of their gossip if they'd do something which would disappoint those gossipers.
🔹 You can Inn-sha-Allah get along harmoniously with any MBTI personality type if:
1] You both understand each other's language, dialect or way of speaking, while the respect is mutual.
2] Jealousy, pride/kibr, selfishness, insecurities, lies or suspicion do not get in the way of your dealings and interactions.
3] You can stay patient, lenient, and forgiving for Allah's sake with one another mutually.
4] You have several qualities, interests, or life experiences in common.
5] You both sincerely strive to do what Allah the Almighty likes, not mainly what your nafs or ego desires.

📖 Anas Ibn Malik RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "The believer is one who is trusted by the people. The Muslim is one from whose tongue and hand the Muslims are safe (not guilty of backbiting, telling lies, and knowingly committing injustice). The emigrant (muhaajir) is one who emigrates away from evil.
By the One (Allah the Almighty) in Whose Hand is my soul, a servant will not enter Paradise if his neighbor is not secure from his harm."
