Signification
To intentionally disregard or ignore what someone is saying.
Contexte culturel
In traditional Iranian families, 'gush nadādan' to parents is considered a significant sign of disrespect (bi-adabi). Classical poets like Rumi often speak of the 'ear of the heart' (gush-e del). To 'not listen' in a spiritual sense is to be blind to the truth. On Iranian Twitter/Instagram, 'گوش نده' is a common comment to support influencers or friends facing 'haters'.
The 'Be' Rule
Always remember to use 'به' (be) before the person you are ignoring.
Politeness
Telling someone 'گوش نمیدی' can be seen as aggressive. Use it carefully in arguments.
