๐ In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
๐ Some strange things you may relate to if you have Ni (introverted intuition) as your dominant cognitive function (if your MBTI personality type is INFJ or INTJ):
1] In some gatherings or situations where you must interact with other individuals, you sometimes feel or imagine as though you're in a prank TV episode or social experiment show with surveillance gadgets around. If somebody mistreats you or shows any sign of disrespect, you visualize them as lousy actors who were given instructions by an insecure outsider to annoy you for the sake of seeing you overreact. In many cases you'd respond in a way that won't give your opponents the satisfaction of witnessing you acting provoked emotionally. As Muslims Alhamdulillah we strive to avoid behaving in ways that would entertain shaytan and his misguided allies.
2] Most "surprises" can't really surprise you, since (with Allah's Will) you recognize patterns and have an uncanny ability (with intuition gifted by Allah the Most Wise) to guess people's probable motives behind a lot of their actions.
3] You can usually sense how a person actually feels about you, despite the facial gestures and body language signals they attempt to make. With guidance from Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala, you're capable of determining if somebody is telling facts, being untruthful, or if they're the kind of acquaintance who'll disappoint you numerous times in the future and you're unsurprised by their unreliability.
4] With Allah's Will, a lot of your dreams actually come true.
5] When someone whom you truly love for Allah's sake misbehaves, upsets you or acts illogically, it's easy for you to analyze all the possible reasons behind why they may be acting weird, so you're able to forgive them readily. To you, there's a difference between a friend who mistreats you because they don't like you back in reality and a loved one who may occasionally upset you because some nosy outsiders, who envy your connection, are the ones compelling them to treat you wrongly or they're struggling with lots of difficulties which deter them from behaving decently.
6] When given multiple choices to choose from, you can decisively pick the option which you believe is the most effective, meaningful and rewarding for you, without remorse, even if what you selected may have its disadvantages, particularly if you always trust that Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala only grants you what He knows is beneficial for your soul.
7] With Ni (introverted intuition) as your dominant cognitive function, you're not very observant with all of the details of your surroundings most of the time. Generally you focus on the big picture, listen to the main points of a lengthy discussion and tend to jump to conclusions when you're stressed out.
Although we've made mistakes and misjudgements in the past, Alhamdulillah we have learned so much from them and still continue learning.

If one of you sees something he dislikes, let him stand to pray and not speak to people about it."
