They say the truth hurts, and that’s not completely true, because accepting the truth should never hurt an honest sincere person, it only hurts the arrogant rebellious person.
Allah ﷻ says:
يا أَيُّهَا الَّذينَ آمَنُوا اتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَكونوا مَعَ الصّادِقينَ
O you who have believed, fear Allāh and be with those who are true. (Surat At-Tawbah: 119)
