He doesn't want me to defend him when he gets insulted

[Aaqib]

Should I listen or defend him?

Im a pathetic wimp with no strength at all. But, now he's telling me that he can take care of himself and I don't need to defend him.

[Scimitar]

Well, you're courage is is endearing, mashaAllah.

You can defend him better by trying to ensure he doesn't end up in situations where people will offend him in sha Allah.

Prevention is always better than treatment.

Oh brother don't think I'm courageous. Before he told me this I used to come up with cowardly ways of defending. After he would be insulted, I would come up to him with advice from behind to tell him without attacking the one who attacked him.

It's because I'm an extremely sensitive person. I don't know why, but I just am.

Defend who?

A muslim friend

[azc]

Instead of giving advice to your friend, come forward and stand before the person who insults your friend, if you can or let him face as he wishes.

I genuinely believe it is more harmful for him that I stand up for him if he doesn't want me to. When he requests for me to stand up for him, then I will do my best.
