“Do not stick your stick into anything that concerns you.”

This popular proverb, which is widespread locally, in the Gulf, and in the Arab world, indicates that this issue is related to our Arab culture: “Do not insert your stick into something that concerns you.”

That is, do not interfere in matters that do not concern you, and you become indispensable to problems.

I used to not interfere in matters that did not concern me unless I was asked, but many people try to express their opinions or argue with me on topics that are not their business or competence, or try to gain fame at the expense of their opinions that do not see the light, and many try to avoid arguing with me Because the idea of ​​me being "quick to anger."

Unfortunately, the group that expresses its opinions often discusses and argues about sterile issues and topics.

It is dealt with as a matter of “stirring emotions” on a quiet fire to stir up strife, as many argue in discussions and their cultural backgrounds do not go beyond “the doorstep of their homes.”

And if they did not find anything to talk about or what serves their interests, they “spread rumours,” and they could be described as “their money is the owner.”

They assume roles that do not suit them, they drift with people who try to win them in various ways, deluding them that they are with them in everything for personal purposes!

Frankly, I often shy away from arguing with “idiots” because my time is precious, and the superficial opinions that are discussed such as: (Awir, Zawir, and Al-Manxr, which has no good) are based on incorrect and inaccurate information, which constitutes confusion and distraction for those who listen to them, especially for those who listen to them. He wants to get to the right information.

Discussing with them reveals their weaknesses, which are not based on foundations or facts.

What will put them at the level of “additionals” in cinematic films serves the director and the heroes in a specific scene, but soon their role ends and their presence eventually fades away!

Its path indicates: do not change your character to please them, do not change your tone to please them, and do not contradict your principle to agree with them, do not fake to obtain their satisfaction, live by what pleases your Lord first, then by what pleases you.. understand what you understand your problem.
