وقال عليه السلام لغالب بن صعصعة أبي الفرزدق، في كلام دار بينهما: مَا فَعَلَتْ إِبِلُكَ الْكثِيرَةُ؟ قال: ذَعْذَعَتْها الحُقُوقُ يا أميرالمؤمنين فَقال عليه السلام : ذَاكَ أَحْمَدُ سُبُلِهَا

Imam Ali (as):

ʿAlī said to Ghālib ibn Ṣaʿṣaʿah, Farazdaq’s father, during a longer conversation: What happened to your large herd of camels? Ghālib replied, “The winds of duty have scattered them, Commander of the Faithful,” and ʿAlī responded: That is the most admirable path they could have taken.

الإمام علي (عليه السَّلام):

فَتَعَصَّبُوا لِخِلَالِ الْحَمْدِ مِنَ الْحِفْظِ لِلْجِوَارِ وَ الْوَفَاءِ بِالذِّمَامِ وَ الطَّاعَةِ لِلْبِرِّ وَ الْمَعْصِيَةِ لِلْكِبْرِ وَ الْأَخْذِ بِالْفَضْلِ وَ الْكَفِّ عَنِ الْبَغْيِ ... وَ الْإِنْصَافِ لِلْخَلْقِ وَ الْكَظْمِ لِلْغَيْظ وَ اجْتِنَابِ الْفَسَادِ فِي الْأَرْض .‏

Imam Ali (as):

If you absolutely must be partisans to a cause, then let your partisanship be for virtuous qualities such as protection of the neighbor, fulfillment of agreements, obedience to the virtuous, opposition to the haughty, generosity towards others, abstention from rebellion... being just to people, suppressing anger and keeping away from causing corruption on the earth.

وَ إِنْ عَقَدْتَ بَيْنَكَ وَ بَيْنَ [عَدُوٍّ لَكَ‏] عَدُوِّكَ عُقْدَةً أَوْ أَلْبَسْتَهُ مِنْكَ ذِمَّةً فَحُطْ عَهْدَكَ بِالْوَفَاءِ وَ ارْعَ ذِمَّتَكَ بِالْأَمَانَةِ وَ اجْعَلْ نَفْسَكَ جُنَّةً دُونَ مَا أَعْطَيْت .‏

Imam Ali (as):

And if you make a covenant between yourself and your enemy or give him a surety [against life or property], then stand by your pact with loyalty and observe your liability with trustworthiness and make yourself the shield for your word

الإمام علي (عليه السَّلام):

وَ الْخُلْفَ يُوجِبُ الْمَقْتَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ وَ النَّاسِ قَالَ اللَّهُ [سُبْحَانَهُ وَ تَعَالَى‏] تَعَالَى كَبُرَ مَقْتاً عِنْدَ اللَّهِ أَنْ تَقُولُوا ما لا تَفْعَلُونَ .

Imam Ali (as):

The breach of a promise brings about Allah’s hatred and that of people. Allah, glory be to Him, has said, ‘It is greatly hateful to Allah that you should say what you do not do.’ (Qur'an, 61:3)

الإمام محمد الباقر (عليه السَّلام):

ثلاثٌ لم يَجعلِ اللّهُ عزّ و جلّ لأحدٍ فيهنّ رُخْصةً: أداءُ الأمانةِ إلَى البَرِّ و الفاجرِ ، و الوفاءُ بالعَهدِ للبَرِّ و الفاجرِ ، و بِرُّ الوالِدَينِ بَرَّينِ كانا أو فاجِرَينِ .

Imam Muhammad al-Baqir (as):

There are three things regarding which Allah, the Exalted, did not allow any flexibility: returning a trust to its owner, be he good or wicked; keeping one's pact with both the good and the wicked; and kindness to one's parents whether they be good or wicked.

الإمام جعفر الصادق (عليه السَّلام ):

المُؤمنُ أخو المؤمنِ ، عَينُهُ و دَليلُهُ ، لا يَخونُهُ ، و لا يَظْلِمُهُ ، و لا يَغُشُّهُ ، و لا يَعِدُهُ عِدَةً فيَخْلِفَهُ .

Imam Ja‘far al-Ṣadiq (as):

A believer is the brother of another believer, his eye and his guide; he does not betray him, nor wrong him, nor deceive him, and nor does he rescind a promise he made to him.

الإمام جعفر الصادق (عليه السَّلام ):

عِدَةُ الْمُؤْمِنِ أَخَاهُ نَذْرٌ لَاكَفَّارَةَ لَهُ؛ فَمَنْ أَخْلَفَ فَبِخُلْفِ اللَّهِ بَدَأَ وَ لِمَقْتِهِ‏ تَعَرَّضَ، وَ ذلِكَ قَوْلُهُ: «يا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لِمَ تَقُولُونَ ما لا تَفْعَلُونَ كَبُرَ مَقْتاً عِنْدَ اللَّهِ‏ أَنْ تَقُولُوا ما لا تَفْعَلُونَ‏».

Imam Ja‘far al-Ṣadiq (as):

The believer's promise made to his fellow brother is a vow for which no amends can be made if broken; so he who breaks a promise has first broken his promise to God and exposed himself to His hatred, as God says in the Quran: "O you who believe! Why do you say what you do not do? It is most hateful to God that you say what you do not do."
