John Shaqi

إِنَّ السَّفَهَ خُلُقُ لَئِيمٍ يَسْتَطِيلُ عَلَى مَنْ هُوَ دُونَهُ وَ يَخْضَعُ لِمَنْ [هُوَ] فَوْقَهُ .


Translation

A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Khalid, from Shareef Bin Sabiq, from Al Fazl Bin Abu Gurra, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘The foolishness is a lowly mannerism. He would extend (himself) upon the one who is below him, and he would succumb to the one who is above him’.
