Mufaz'il ibn Amr narrated that Imam Sadiq (a.s) said
“It is not good for a believer to do something to get humiliated. He was asked: “What will humiliate him?” Imam Sadiq (a.s) replied: “When he does something for which he has to apologize later.”
عن مفضل بن عمر قال
قال أبو عبد الله (عليه السلام): لا ينبغي للمؤمن أن يذل نفسه، قلت: بما يذل نفسه؟ قال: يدخل فيما يعتذر منه.
