The Censure of Preoccupying Oneself with Others Faults Whilst Flattering Oneself

Prophet Jesus (AS) said, ‘O iniquitous servants, you blame others based on what you conjecture about them and do not blame yourselves in that which you know for certain!

The Prophet (SAWA) said, ‘How can you notice a speck in your brother s eye but overlook the tree stump in your own!

The Prophet (SAWA) said, ‘The fault that lies within a man s own self is more than enough to prevent him from prying into other people s faults, which he himself possesses but to which he is blind; or from blaming others for that which he himself is unable to abandon; or from bothering the one he is sitting next to by prying into matters that are none of his business.

Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘The one who pries into others faults, disapproves of them, and then adopts them for himself, is truly a fool.

Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘The greatest fault is when one criticises others for the same faults present in oneself.
