I just wanted to say thank you for a wonderful and informative blog. It is wonderful to have access to the wisdom of Imam Ali (may God ennoble his countenance) in English.
It’s good for seekers of the truth to expand their knowledge by reading quotes from religious figures. Imam Ali (a.s.) has a huge legacy of quotes and speeches still unknown to the English reader, I am just presenting a tiny part of it.
Hi. Can you send me some references for the following quote
“A person’s deeds must be better than his words, a person’s words must not be better than his deeds.”
Is it from the nahjul balagha?
I am translating directly from:
حكم الإمام علي (عليه السلام) أو غرر الحکم ودرر الكلم — عبد الواحد الآمدي التميمي
Which contains only quotes from Imam Ali. If you can read Arabic this book is worth buying.
As compared to the above book, Nahjul Balagha contains mostly sermons, and few quotations.
mashallah you have nice collection of saying but felt to suggest you that if you can change some of the settings of your tags appearance it would be great for the design of your blog as well and love the work that you are doing
Hi! Its really a very nice blog and I would like to tell you that I really appreciate it. Get the effort going. The type of English used to translate is also very good. Good Work. Keep it up.
“Hate no one, no matter how much they’ve wronged you. Live humbly, no matter how wealthy you become. Think positively, no matter how hard life is. Give much, even if you’ve been given little. Keep in touch with the ones who have forgotten you, and forgive who has wronged you, & do not stop praying for the best for those you love.”
Do you by any chance have the translation for this quote?
لا تكره أحدا مهما أخطأ في حقك
عش في بساطة مهما علا شأنك
توقع خيرا مهما كثر البلاء
أعط كثيرا ولو حرمت
صل من قطعك
وأعف عمن ظلمك
ولا تقطع دعاءك لعزيز لديك
It is attributed to Ali bin Abi Talib, but I couldn’t verify its authenticity.

Hello.
My source of the quotes is the Arabic book:
حكم الإمام علي (عليه السلام) أو غرر الحکم ودرر الكلم — عبد الواحد الآمدي التميمي
I am not sure if this quote appears in Nahjul Balagha or not. Nahjul Balagha’s English version is here: Nahjul Balagha
