Between blame and admonition..by Hossam Badrawi

Today, I am at the breakfast table with my daughter, her family and some of her friends. A conversation took place between one of the mothers and her daughter blaming her for some behavior.
A conversation ran in my mind, which I decided to open with the young people around me, about the meaning of blame and the difference between it and admonition.
Is there a difference in the English translation of the two words.
Or that the Arabic language has capabilities superior to English in expression.
My goal was to pass on my experience to them without interfering.
What is the difference between blame and admonition?
Judgment contains innocence, love and positive energy
As for blaming, its goal is to prove the other’s mistake and earn a point on it.
Judgment when you hear the feeling of love,
Blaming what you hear keeps the other in a state of self-defense, which is a negative feeling.
The difference between them in saying is the way you say it and your comment on the response
In blaming, you continue to prove the error of the other after answering him, and the blame deepens
As for the reproach of loved ones, any response opens
Baba to accept and build on the offer.

My educated friend said to me when I discussed her blaming and admonishing:

You have the right, for admonition is the words of the lover gently, from the door: “You are reprimanded until you are satisfied.”

As for blaming, it is slandering with abusive words with the intent of punishment, and it is a degree of administrative punishment preceded by attention and followed by the opponent. It involves and is associated with the infinitive letters of the word meanness.
What is beyond reproach from blame.

She added:
The blame comes from the same source as the blame and in popular culture:
“Words of admonition are prolonged between loved ones.” This is because they are greeted at the threshold of the house with joy and happiness, with hugs and kisses, and asking about news and conditions. And they bid farewell to recommendations for return and prayers for safety and hugs and farewell tears for the near separation.
As it is said: “Sixes are custodians” when provision comes with the bride.
and “blame for looking” for a gentle apology for an inadvertent disregard.
And “the threshold of gazaz” denotes luxury and ease of joyful living.
and “tata…tata…
Step the Threshold” for the child’s first steps on the ground in the direction of exit to life.

And of course, the “green threshold” where happy gathering, abundant goods at low prices, sectoral market movement, and profitable wholesale on holidays and occasions.
And “No reproach on the threshold.” Where it is not correct to receive guests or bid farewell to them. And “the waiter’s reproach is to be avoided”, that is, to ignore it, because it does not deserve the effort or the emotion of admonishing

And another friend of mine sent me a research paper by Dr. Fouad Hadiya (Professor of Psychology at Ain Shams University) in which she says:
“Blame is an indirect way in which a person asserts control over the person he blames and appoints himself as his judge and judge. This is not accepted by many.”

And Christ warned and taught, “Do not judge, that you may not be judged.”

Scientific research has proven that the person who is always being blamed, when he tries to change, does not change for the sake of those he loves, but rather changes to prove that he is not a bad person.

Sometimes we blame our children, our husbands, our destiny, and many times we blame God Himself for objecting to certain things we are going through.

Dr. Fouadah also says, “Attitude is a sophisticated language that leads the locomotive of love forward, igniting it with the fuel of self-confidence and purifying it from a sense of failure.”

But blame!!!

When we blame our children, we generate a feeling of inferiority and a loss of self-confidence. Perhaps some of us suffered from parents blaming him in his childhood, so I think that admonition or encouragement and warning is the fruitful language that stimulates and does not destroy like blame.

Let us pay attention to how we use words with others, because “death and life are in the hand of the tongue,” as the wise Solomon says, with our words we may kill or revive those we speak with. There is a saying that says: The wound of the sword heals, while the wound of speech never heals…

Let our words always be accompanied by grace, and let us change the language of blame and condemnation with the language of love and encouragement.

blame and don’t blame

About Dr. Hossam Badrawi

Dr. Hossam Badrawi
He is a politician, intellect, and prominent physician. He is the former head of the Gynecology Department, Faculty of Medicine Cairo University. He conducted his post graduate studies from 1979 till 1981 in the United States. He was elected as a member of the Egyptian Parliament and chairman of the Education and Scientific Research Committee in the Parliament from 2000 till 2005. As a politician, Dr. Hossam Badrawi was known for his independent stances. His integrity won the consensus of all people from various political trends. During the era of former president Hosni Mubarak he was called The Rationalist in the National Democratic Party NDP because his political calls and demands were consistent to a great extent with calls for political and democratic reform in Egypt. He was against extending the state of emergency and objected to the National Democratic Party's unilateral constitutional amendments during the January 25, 2011 revolution. He played a very important political role when he defended, from the very first beginning of the revolution, the demonstrators' right to call for their demands. He called on the government to listen and respond to their demands. Consequently and due to Dr. Badrawi's popularity, Mubarak appointed him as the NDP Secretary General thus replacing the members of the Bureau of the Commission. During that time, Dr. Badrawi expressed his political opinion to Mubarak that he had to step down. He had to resign from the party after 5 days of his appointment on February 10 when he declared his political disagreement with the political leadership in dealing with the demonstrators who called for handing the power to the Muslim Brotherhood. Therefore, from the very first moment his stance was clear by rejecting a religion-based state which he considered as aiming to limit the Egyptians down to one trend. He considered deposed president Mohamed Morsi's decision to bring back the People's Assembly as a reinforcement of the US-supported dictatorship. He was among the first to denounce the incursion of Morsi's authority over the judicial authority, condemning the Brotherhood militias' blockade of the Supreme Constitutional Court. Dr. Hossam supported the Tamarod movement in its beginning and he declared that toppling the Brotherhood was a must and a pressing risk that had to be taken few months prior to the June 30 revolution and confirmed that the army would support the legitimacy given by the people
