The Impact of Words on Confidence and Expression

The capability to articulate oneself and demonstrate expertise can be undermined by the fear of humiliation. Even confident professionals with knowledge and proficiency in their fields can become speechless and anxious in the face of potential humiliation. This tightness in the chest and loss of ability to speak is common when dealing with people who can humiliate. It becomes more challenging when the wrongdoers are close to us, such as family members. Confronting family about their wrongdoing can be especially difficult due to the potentially devastating impact of their words. Recognizing this, Muslims strive to address wrongdoings in a manner that avoids humiliation and cruelty.
