Wisdom: Do not preach wisdom to one who lacks wisdom

Do not preach wisdom
To one who lacks wisdom
And faith in God.
You wisdom will not enter him; it will be transformed into a
dangerous weapon which will turn on you and attack you.

Muhaiyaddeen, M.R. Bawa. The Golden Words of a Sufi Sheikh. Philadelphia:Fellowship Press, 1981, 2006

i have this explanation, that if someone who is not willing to learn with open heart and good intention don't preach them because there mind abilty will not accept what u preach instead of understanding they look to ur views with prejudice and develop hate and later it turn into grudge and may harm the preacher
