وَ اقْصِدْ فِیْ مَشْیِكَ وَ اغْضُضْ مِنْ صَوْتِكَؕ-اِنَّ اَنْكَرَ الْاَصْوَاتِ لَصَوْتُ الْحَمِیْرِ(19)
And walk at a normal pace and lower ˹the tone of˺ your voice. The worst voice is that of the donkey. [1]
Commentary
[1]
Speaking in a loud tone of voice without need is a disliked act and to discourage people from this, it has been compared to the sound of a donkey.
