Shahadat Eve of Imam Ali (AS) – Eve of 21st Ramadhan

To me, death is nothing but happiness, and living under tyrants nothing but living in a hell.

When you gain power over your adversary pardon him by way of thanks for being able to overpower him.

Meet people in such a manner that if you die they should weep for you and if you live they should long for you.

The best companion is submission (to Allah’s will). Knowledge is a venerable estate; good manners are new dresses; and thinking is clear mirror.

No one will feel secured on the Resurrection Day except those who feared God in this world.

One who pursues a goal through sinful ways, will ironically distance himself from that goal, and will approach what he was afraid of.

Blessed is a face upon which Allah gazes while it is weeping for a sin out of fear of Allah, the Exalted, even if no one else knew about that sin.
