Disease Quote by Ibn Taymiyyah

“Some people have the disease of criticising all the time. They forget the good about others and only mention their faults. They are like flies that avoid the good and pure places and land on the bad and wounds. This is because of the evil within the self and the spoiled nature” quote by Ibn Taymiyyah
