How Should One Walk and Talk?

Two men praying in Palestine, this photograph was taken between 1890 and 1900.

"And be moderate* (or show no insolence) in your walking, and lower your voice. Verily, the harshest of all voices is the voice (braying) of the asses."
(Luqman 31:19)



*Moderate, this word is more in tune to saying one walks in humility, which has nothing to do in what is being equated with this word today.
