HE WHO TRUST THE WORLD, THE WORLD BETRAYS HIM.

Time wears out bodies, renews hopes, brings death nearer and takes away aspirations. Whoever gets anything from the world lives in anxiety for holding it and whoever loses anything passes his days grieving over the loss. -Imam Ali (a.s)

See the bad inside yourself, and see the good inside others. -Imam Ali (a.s)
See the bad inside yourself, and see the good inside others.
Remember that this world which you covet so ardently and attempt to acquire so earnestly, and which sometimes annoys you and sometimes pleases you so much, is neither your home nor a permanent destination. You have not been created for it, nor invited to it as your resting-place. It shall neither remain with you forever, nor will you remain in it eternally. If it has enticed you away with its charms, it has also warned and cautioned you of real dangers lurking in its folds. Take account of the warnings it has given you and do not be seduced or deceived by its allurements. Let these warnings frighten you from being too greedy to possess it. Try to advance towards the place where you are invited for eternal bliss and turn your face away from the vicious world. -Imam Ali Ibn-e-Abi Talib (a.s)

Your brother is one who does not abandon you in difficulty, does not forget you at times of trouble, and does not cheat when you seek his advice. -Hazrat Ali (a.s)
