Do not denigrate the next person

Being a human being, everyone has a dignity that must be preserved. No one should take the honour of his friend and denigrate him. It is possible that a person, who is suffering a certain kind of humiliation today, may have humiliated someone before. And the person, who is denigrating his friend today, must expect that someone may denigrate him tomorrow.

Thus, if one is making someone suffer by humiliating him today, one must not be upset if someone makes one suffer tomorrow. However, if one did not yet suffer the repercussion, one has the opportunity to prevent it. One must just repent and apologise to the person concerned. Otherwise, this Dunya is like an echo. Everything you do will come back to you.
