More quotes by 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
A True friend is one who sees a fault, gives you advice and who defends you in your absence.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Asceticism is not that you should not own anything, but that nothing should own you.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Like your body your mind also gets tired so refresh it by wise sayings.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
The best companion and helper is admirable morals.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
To fight against one's desires is the greatest of all fights.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
The one from among the Muslims who recites the Qur'an but in the end finds his way to hell, is considerd to be among those that have taken the word of Allah in jest.

Ali ibn Abi Talib
Do not raise your children the way your parents raised you they were born for a different time.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
A girl is a good deed and a boy is a bounty. Good deeds are rewarded while people are held accountable for bounties.
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
The worst of our faults is our interest in other people's faults.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Hate no one, no matter how much they've wronged you. Live humbly, no matter how wealthy you become. Think positively, no matter how hard life is. Give much, even if you've been given little. Keep in touch with the ones who have forgotten you, and forgive who has wronged you, and do not stop praying for the best for those you love.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
A calamity does not descend except due to a sin and it is not lifted except with repentance.
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
Never explain yourself to anyone, because the one who likes you would not need it, and the one dislikes you wouldn't believe it.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
If you are greeted then return the greetings more warmly. If you are favored, then repay the obligation manifold but he who takes the initiative will always excel in merit.
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
Courtesy costs nothing, but buys everything.
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
