Make Yourself the Judge Between You and the Others

[Tasnim 64]

Man is a social being, it means he has to live among people, and to live among others has some certain requirements. One of the most important requirements is respecting others rights.
It is clear that when you live among people, you have some limitations and you cannot behave as you wish! For instance, if your home is in an apartment complex, you are not allowed to make noise whatever you want.
Second example can be brought about driving a car. There are many cars on the street and all of them want to drive in a relax environment, so it is not good to horn unreasonable and very much.
There are many examples that you can find with a little attention.
One of the most complete sentence in this regard is the sentence of Imam Ali (A.S):
“make yourself the judge between you and the others. Like for the others what you like for yourself and dislike for them what you dislike for yourself … Whatever you think as being bad for the others to do, think of it as being bad for you too to do. Deal with people in a way as you like them to deal with you. Do not talk about what you do not know well. Do not say to the others what you do not like to be said to you.” ((Nahj-ul-Balagha / The letter of 31)
