More quotes by Ali ibn Abi Talib
Whoever wants to be a leader should educate himself before educating others. Before preaching to others he should first practice himself. Whoever educates himself and improves his own morals is superior to the man who tries to teach and train others.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
An alert and learned man will take advice from any event.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Like your body your mind also gets tired so refresh it by wise sayings.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Whoever desires Paradise, proceeds towards goodness whoever fears Hell, refrains from the impulses of passions whoever believes firmly in death, detests wordly life and whoever recognises the worldly life, the trials and tribulations (of life) become slight for him.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
He who busies himself with things other than improvement of his own self becomes perplexed in darkness and entangled in ruin. His evil spirits immerse him deep in vices and make his bad actions seem handsome.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
There is no knowledge and science like pondering and thought and there is no prosperity and advancement like knowledge and science.
Ali ibn Abi Talib

Ali ibn Abi Talib
To maintain nice relation with the people is half of intelligence, nice questioning is half of knowledge, and nice domestic arrangements is half of the management of livelihood.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Nothing hurts a good soul and kind heart more than to live amongst people who can't understand it.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Allah, the Exalted, gave the angels intellect without desires, He gave the animals desires without intellect, and He gave both to the sons of Adam. So a man whose intellect prevails over his desires is better than the angels, whilst a man whose desire prevails over his intellect is worse than the animals.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
He who guards his secrets retains control in his own hands
Ali ibn Abi Talib
One who is mild rather than forceful has greater capacity for outreach.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
