๐ In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
๐️ Seven things which you, if you're a truly mature adult, do not do:
1] You do not act like obnoxious bullies nor do you give irrational instructions to people, including children, to mistreat others.
2] You do not cut in line (go in front of an individual who's already queuing) unless you have an urgent need to do so and you are decent enough to apologize for any misconduct you display.
3] You avoid making shallow judgments and boisterously ridiculing others. If you dislike a person for whatever reason, you keep your resentment to yourself, gracefully staying away from childish mockery and infantile gossip.
4] You're capable of dining out and attending gatherings without obliging yourself to frequently take pretentious photos of the meals you've enjoyed, childishly flaunting what you ate to your online stalkers, almost in the same way some toddlers flaunt their colorful scribbles to their babysitters.
5] You don't get overdramatic nor do you make it a big deal when you discover that you weren't invited to a gathering, aware that the host likely didn't have sufficient budget to accommodate large numbers of guests, or they innocently forgot to invite you because they've got lots of loved ones and acquaintances to contact, or they cancelled their invitation because they figured that you'd automatically decline their invite due to busyness and preoccupation with other tasks.
6] Your rich values and remarkable self-control prevent you from acting on the urge to steal anyone's property and unattended belongings. Stealing is a despicable action which you'd never want to do.
7] As much as possible you refrain from blurting out supposedly offensive and disrespectful remarks, loudly expressing your loathing for someone or something as though you're controlled by your emotions, unless you're a witness of injustice and you intend to rectify a situation.
