لا يَجرِي الحَقُّ لِأحَدٍ إلّا جَرى عَلَيهِ The Truth Can Side Equally With or Against Someone

16ـ الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : الحقُّ أوْسَعُ الأشياءِ في التَّواصُفِ ، وأضْيَقُها في التَّناصُفِ ، لا يَجْري لأحدٍ إلّا جَرى عَلَيهِ ، ولا يَجْري علَيهِ إلّا جَرى لَهُ ، ولَو كانَ لأحَدٍ أنْ يَجْريَ لَهُ ولا يَجْريَ علَيهِ لَكانَ ذلكَ خالِصاً للّه‏ِ سُبحانَهُ .

16- Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘The truth is the widest thing in description, but the narrowest in practicing justice. No sooner does it side with someone than it will side against him [at another time], and no sooner does it side against someone than it will side for him later. And if anyone is to side with it, never going against it, then that would be purely for Allah, glory be to Him.’[Nahj al-Balagha, Sermon 216]

 

17ـ الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : لا تَمْنَعَنّكُم رِعايةُ الحقِّ لأحدٍ عن إقامَةِ الحقِّ علَيهِ .

17- Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘Do not let consideration for a person’s right hinder you from upholding the truth when it is against him.’[Ghurar al-Hikam, no. 10338]
