Editing Kitab-i-Badi/GPT4 389

By Allah, if the spirit of modesty could speak, it would disassociate itself from you, and the essence of courtesy would seek refuge in Allah from your actions. Courtesy is the attribute of a refined human being and distinguishes them from those who lack knowledge [204]. Any soul that has not attained it would certainly prefer nonexistence over existence.

You have violated the veil of your own courtesy and modesty, O assembly of transgressors!
