و درود خدا بر او فرمود: اگر بنده خدا اجل و پایان کارش را می دید، با آرزو و فریب آن دشمنی می ورزید. Amir al-Mu'minin, peace be upon him, said: If a man happens to see the end of (his) life and his final fate, he will bigin hating desires…

وَ قَالَ (عليه السلام): لَوْ رَأَي الْعَبْدُ الْأَجَلَ وَ مَصِيرَهُ، لَأَبْغَضَ الْأَمَلَ وَ غُرُورَهُ

Amir al-Mu'minin, peace be upon him, said: If a man happens to see the end of (his) life and his final fate, he will bigin hating desires and their deception.
