More quotes by Ali ibn Abi Talib
There is no greater wealth than wisdom, no greater poverty than ignorance no greater heritage than culture and no greater support than consultation.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
An accepted deed is never small in Taqwa (consciousness of Allah), how can what has been accepted be small?
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Not every man with a heart is understanding, nor every man with an ear a listener, and nor every man with eyes able to see.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Knowledge is of two kinds: that which is absorbed and that which is heard. And that which is heard does not profit if it is not absorbed.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
How strange and foolish is man. He looses his health in gaining wealth. Then to regain health he wastes his wealth. He ruins is present while worrying about his future - but weeps in the future by recalling his past. He lives as though death shall never come to him - but dies in a way as if he were never born.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Beware of the flight of Blessings, For nothing that runs away is returned.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Know thyself, and thou shalt know God.

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
The world is darkness knowledge is light but knowledge without truth is a mere shadow.
Ali ibn Abi Talib

Ali ibn Abi Talib

Ali ibn Abi Talib
Lead such a life, that, when you die, the people may mourn you, and while you are alive they long for your company.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Riches without faith are the greatest poverty.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
It is better to listen to a wise enemy than to seek counsel from a foolish friend.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
During civil disturbance adopt such an attitude that people do not attach any importance to you - they neither burden you with complicated affairs, nor try to derive any advantage out of you.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
One who rushes madly after inordinate desire, runs the risk of encountering destruction and death.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Reciter and listener of the Qur'an are alike in prize and reward.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
A person of riyaa (showing off) has three characteristics : He is lazy when alone, energetic when with others, and increases in his actions when he is praised while decreasing in them when he is criticized.
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
