حکمت 123: خوشا به حال آن کس که خود را کوچک… · Saying 123

وَ قَالَ (عليه السلام): طُوبَي لِمَنْ ذَلَّ فِي نَفْسِهِ وَ طَابَ كَسْبُهُ وَ صَلَحَتْ سَرِيرَتُهُ وَ حَسُنَتْ خَلِيقَتُهُ وَ أَنْفَقَ الْفَضْلَ مِنْ مَالِهِ وَ أَمْسَكَ الْفَضْلَ مِنْ لِسَانِهِ وَ عَزَلَ عَنِ النَّاسِ شَرَّهُ وَ وَسِعَتْهُ السُّنَّةُ وَ لَمْ يُنْسَبْ إلَي الْبِدْعَةِ.

قال الرضي: أقول و من الناس من ينسب هذا الكلام إلي رسول الله (صلي الله عليه وآله) و كذلك الذي قبله.

Amir al-Mu'minin, peace be upon him, said: Blessed be he who humbles himself, whose livelihood is pure, whose heart is chaste, whose habits are virtuous, who spends his savings "in the name of Allah", who prevents his tongue from speaking nonsense, who keeps people safe from evil, who is pleased with the (Prophet's) sunnah, and who is unconnected with innovation (in religion). Al-Sayyid al-Radi says: Some people attribute this and the previous saying to the Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and his descendants)
