At times, when a scholar conveys a message, a guilty conscience within us makes us feel like he is attacking us or directing talking to us.
This happens because we desperately needed the message for our self- improvement.
The Almighty is the One who makes him choose a relevant topic that has in it a message directed to us from HIM as a reminder.
To castigate a scholar due to him conveying the truth regarding current issues in our lives makes us suffer untold loss.
Thank the Almighty for the message.
