Self Depreciation or Inferiority Complex
3:58:0 2024-08-07 2111

This vice, caused by cowardice, is a condition that results when an individual lacking courage to interfere positively in important matters fails to carry out his social responsibilities such as persuading others to perform righteous action and forbidding them from evil deeds.
Treatment of this disease is the same as that which was described in the case of cowardice. The individual affected by this moral vice should know that a true believer in Allah is never subjected to disgrace, and that Allah has bestowed honour and dignity on the believer. The Holy Quran says:
... honour belongs to Allah and to His messenger and the believers ... (63:8)
There is a tradition which says:
Allah has assigned to the believer the duty to [suffer] everything except humiliation of his own self.
The characteristic opposite of self-depreciation is strength of character and self-respect; that is, one should acquire a temperament which is unaffected by anything pleasant or painful, either praise or blame. Imam al-Baqir (A) has been quoted as saying:
A true believer is firmer than a mountain.
In another tradition, he has been quoted as saying:
Allah has bestowed on the believer three qualities: honour in this world and the Hereafter, salvation in both the worlds, and fear of him in the hearts of the oppressors.
