عجله کار شیطان است

ajaleh kar-e sheytan ast

Haste is the work of the devil

Rushing often leads to mistakes or bad outcomes.

🌍

문화적 배경

In Iran, tea is served very hot. If you try to drink it too fast, you burn your tongue. This is a common physical reminder of the proverb. The proverb reflects the Islamic value of 'Taba'ul' (deliberation). It is believed that God created the world in six days to teach humans patience, even though He could have done it in an instant. Younger generations sometimes use this proverb ironically when they are stuck in slow traffic or waiting for slow internet, mocking the 'forced' patience of their environment.

It is much more common to say this to someone else than to say it about yourself.

⚠️

Don't sound lazy

Don't use this as an excuse to be late for a meeting! It's about the quality of work, not being slow on purpose.
