Aun Jafery answered (to someone elses question) Diamond in the rough is a phrase or an idiom that is used in the English language. It is used to refer to a person as having good character and qualities and the potential of becoming great but lacking any sort of refinement and polish. It is rarely used to refer to mean something valuable having been found in an unexpected or out of place location. As an expression it describes a grey section of society where a person may not himself commit crime but may know those who do. It refers to a person who has all the goodness in him much like an uncut diamond but lacks the polish and finishing that a final diamond has. The phrase is a metaphor of a diamond that is uncut and that needs to be polished and cut to become perfect.
