الحَقُّ The Truth

1ـ الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : الحقُّ أقوى ظَهيرٍ.

1- Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘The truth is the strongest support.’[Ghurar al-Hikam, no. 716]
 

2ـ الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : ألاَ وإنَّ الحَقَّ مَطايا ذُلُلٌ ، رَكِبَها أهلُها واُعطُوا أزِمَّتَها ، فسارَتْ بِهِمُ الهُوَيْنا حتّى أتَتْ ظِلاًّ ظَليلاً.

2- Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘Know that the truth is [like] tame mounts, whose owners have mounted them and have been handed their reins. They take them gently until they came to ample shade.’[Nahj al-Sa`ada, v. 3, p. 294]
 

3ـ الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : مَن يَطلُبِ العِزَّ بغَيرِ حقٍّ يَذِلَّ، ومَن عانَدَ الحقَّ لَزِمَهُ الوَهْنُ.

3- Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘He who seeks might unrightfully will be humiliated, and he who opposes the truth will be afflicted with weakness.’[Tuhaf al-`Uqoul, no. 95]
 

4ـ الإمامُ الصّادقُ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : لَيس مِن باطلٍ يَقومُ بإزاءِ الحقِّ إلّا غلَبَ الحقُّ الباطِلَ، وذلكَ قولُهُ : «بَلْ نَقْذِفُ بالحَقِّ على الباطِلِ فيَدْمَغُهُ ...» .

4- Imam al-Sadiq (AS) said, ‘No sooner does falsehood stand against the truth than the truth defeats the falsehood, for that is the purport of His verse: “Rather We hurl the truth against falsehood, and it crushes its head…”[ Bihar al-Anwar, v. 5, p. 305, no. 24]
 

5ـ الإمامُ الصّادقُ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : العِزُّ أنْ تَذِلَّ للحقِّ إذا لَزِمَكَ.

5- Imam al-Sadiq (AS) said, ‘Honour is that you humble yourself to the truth when you face it.’[Bihar al-Anwar, v. 78, p. 228, no. 105]
