It is narrated from Imam Sadiq as:
No one boasts to the others unless for the inferiority he feels in himself!

brief description:
nowadays, psychological and psychoanalytic researches have proved that arrogance and boasting to others is nothing else than an inferiority complex. those who are affected to this complex and suffer from it, resort to this wrong way that is magnifying themselves artificially for compensating their deficiencies, and thereby they add to their social inferiority and make themselves more hated.
this psychological point is clearly observed in the miraculous speech narrated from imam sadiq a.s. but the faithful people are always modest before others due to their internal dignity.

قال امام صادق علیه السلام

ما مِنْ رَجُل تَجَبَّرَ أَوْ تَكَبَّرَ إلاّ لِذِلَّة يَجِدُها فِى نَفْسِهِ

هیچ فردی خود ستایی نمی کند مگر به خاطر ذلتی که در درونش احساس می کند
