Ali ibn Abi Talib

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
Had there not been five bad qualities, all the people would have been righteous. Contentment with ignorance love for worldly life miserliness inspite of much wealth ostentation in (good) deeds and pride in their own intelligence.
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
To whatever extent a person's knowledge increases, his attention will be turned more towards his soul.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Beautiful people are not always good, but good people are always beautiful.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
One who rushes madly after inordinate desire, runs the risk of encountering destruction and death.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Like your body your mind also gets tired so refresh it by wise sayings.
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
When wisdom reaches the acme of perfection, it will suppress the vicious instincts and injurious desires.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
An alert and learned man will take advice from any event.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Body is purified by water. Ego by tears. Intellect is purified by knowledge. And soul is purified with love.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Never make a decision in anger and never make a promise in happiness.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
