10ـ الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): إنّ اللّهَ تعالى فَرَضَ على أئمّةِ العَدلِ (الحقِّ) أن يُقَدِّرُوا أنفُسَهُم بِضَعَفَةِ الناسِ، كيلا يَتَبيَّغَ بالفَقيرِ فَقرُهُ. |

11ـ الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): إنّ اللّهَ سبحانَهُ فَرَضَ في أموالِ الأغنياءِ أقواتَ الفُقَراءِ، فما جاعَ فَقيرٌ إلّا بما مُتِّعَ بهِ غَنيٌّ. |

13ـ الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): إنّ اللّهَ فَرَضَ على جَوارِحِكَ كُلِّها فَرائضَ يَحتَجُّ بها علَيكَ يَومَ القِيامَةِ . |
