وَقَالَ (عليه السلام):
Amir al-mu'minin, peace be upon him, said:
افْعَلُوا الْخَيْرَ
Do good
وَلاَ تَحْقِرُوا مِنْهُ شَيْئاً،
and do not regard any part of it small
فَإِنَّ صَغِيرَهُ كَبِيرٌ
because its small is big
وَقَلِيلَهُ كَثِيرٌ،
and its little is much.
وَلا يَقُولَنَّ أَحَدُكُمْ:
No one of you should say
إِنَّ أَحَداً أَوْلَى بِفِعْلِ الْخَيْرِ مِنِّي
that another person is more deserving than I in doing good.
فَيَكُونَ وَاللهِ كَذلِكَ،
Otherwise, by Allah, it would really be so.
إِنَّ لِلْخَيْرِ وَالشَّرِّ أَهْلاً،
There are people of good and evil.
فَمَهْمَا تَرَكْتُمُوهُ مِنْهُمَا
When you would leave either of the two,
كَفَاكُمُوهُ أَهْلُهُ.
others will perform them.
