² Mosovat is an Arabic word that describes the highest level of maturity in human relationships, a condition in which individuals would prefer others over themselves without any hesitation or hope for reward, and as the natural expression of their being. Mosovat has a similar but broader connotation than altruism, which denotes unselfish concern for the welfare of others.
