More quotes by Ali ibn Abi Talib
One who rushes madly after inordinate desire, runs the risk of encountering destruction and death.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Poverty is the worst form of death.
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
There is no rest for the person who has envy, and there is no love for the person who has bad manners.

Ali ibn Abi Talib
A man's behavior is the index of the man, and his discourse is the index of his understanding.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Do not let your difficulties fill you with anxiety, after all it is only in the darkest nights that stars shine more brightly.
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
Do not share the knowledge with which you have been blessed with everyone in general, as you do with some people in particular and know that there are some men in whom Allah, may He he glorified, has placed hidden secrets, which they are forbidden to reveal.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Man comes from a drop of semen and leaves as a piece of dust. He doesn't know when he came and he doesn't know when he's leaving, yet he walks on the earth thinking he knows everything.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
