وَقَالَ (عليه السلام):
Amir al-mu'minin, peace be upon him, said:
إِذَا هِبْتَ أَمْراً
When you are afraid of something
فَقَعْ فِيهِ،
dive straight into it,
فَإِنَّ شِدَّةَ تَوَقِّيهِ
because the intensity of abstaining from it
أَعْظَمُ مِمَّا تَخَافُ مِنْهُ.
is greater (worse) than what you are afraid of.
