مَا مِنْ شَيْءٍ عُبِدَ اللَّهُ بِهِ أَفْضَلَ مِنَ الْعَقْلِ وَ مَا تَمَّ عَقْلُ امْرِئٍ حَتَّى يَكُونَ فِيهِ خِصَالٌ شَتَّى الْكُفْرُ وَ الشَّرُّ مِنْهُ مَأْمُونَانِ وَ الرُّشْدُ وَ الْخَيْرُ مِنْهُ مَأْمُولَانِ وَ فَضْلُ مَالِهِ مَبْذُول .
Imam Ali (as):
Nothing is better conducive to Allah’s worship than the intellect, and a man’s intellect is not complete until he has some qualities: disbelief and evil from him are not to be feared, while progress and good are expected from him, and the excess from his wealth is given away [in Allah’s way].
