Of all the follies the greatest is to love the world.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
No one has ever suffered from his people as I have.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Never make a decision in anger and never make a promise in happiness.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Do not be too hard, lest you be broken do not be too soft, lest you be squeezed.
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
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
Two things cause people to be destroyed: fear of poverty and seeking superiority through pride.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
When proven wrong, the wise man will correct himself and the ignorant will keep arguing.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Courtesy costs nothing, but buys everything.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
A wise man first thinks and then speaks and a fool speaks first and then thinks.
Ali ibn Abi Talib

Ali ibn Abi Talib

Ali ibn Abi Talib

Ali ibn Abi Talib
If you find that somebody is not grateful for all that you have done for him, then do not get disappointed because often you will find that someone else feels under your obligation though you have done nothing for him and thus your good deeds will be compensated, and Allah will reward you for your goodness.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
The sin which makes you sad and repentant is more liked by Allah than the good deed which turns you arrogant.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
To fight against one's desires is the greatest of all fights.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Oh writer! An Angel watches over all you write. Make your writing meaningful for it will eventually return to you and you will be questioned about what you wrote.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
