The young among you should follow the elders while the elders should be kind to the young. Do not be like those rude people of the pre-Islamic (al-jāhiliyyah) period who did not exert themselves in religion nor use their intellects in the matter of Allāh. They [1] are like the breaking of eggs in the nest of a dangerous bird, because their breaking looks bad, but keeping them intact would mean the production of dangerous young ones.
