← All quotes by Ali

5 quotes

Two things cause people to be destroyed: fear of poverty and seeking superiority through pride.

The destitute is the Messenger of God. Whoever denies him denies God and whoever gives him gives God.

He who practices moderation and frugality will never be threatened with poverty.

There is no greater wealth than wisdom, no greater poverty than ignorance; no greater heritage than culture and no greater support than consultation.

Wealth converts a strange land into homeland and poverty turns a native place into a strange land.
