12ـ رسولُ اللهِِ (صَلَّيَ اللهُ عَلَيهِ وَ آلِهِ): مَن أرضى سُلطاناً بما يُسخِطُ اللّهَ خَرَجَ عن دِينِ اللّهِ عَزَّوجلَّ. |
| 12– The Prophet (SAWA) said, ‘He who pleases a ruler with regard to something that displeases Allah excludes himself from the religion of Allah, Mighty and Exalted.’[`Uyoun Akhbar al-Ridha (AS), v. 2, p. 69, no. 318] |

13ـ الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): ألا فَالحَذَرَ الحَذَرَ مِن طاعَةِ ساداتِكم وكُبَرائكُمُ الَّذينَ تَكَبَّرُوا عن حَسَبِهِم، وتَرَفَّعُوا فَوقَ نَسَبِهِم ... ولا تُطِيعُوا الأدعِياءَ الذينَ شَرِبتُم بِصَفوِكُم كَدَرَهُم، وخَلَطتُم بِصِحَّتِكُم مَرَضَهُم، وأدخَلتُم في حَقِّكُم باطِلَهُم، وهُم أساسُ الفُسوقِ . |
| 13– Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘Beware O beware of obeying your leaders and your elders who felt proud of their achievements and boasted about their lineage … and do not obey those who claim to be Muslims [but are hypocrites] whose filth you imbibe alongside your propriety, whose ailments you mix with your healthiness, and whose wrongs you have allowed to infiltrate your rightful matters, while they are the very foundation of vice.’[Nahj al-Balagha, Sermon 192] |

14ـ الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): مَن أطاعَ التَّوانِيَ ضَيَّعَ الحُقوقَ، ومَن أطاعَ الواشِيَ ضَيَّعَ الصَّدِيقَ. |
| 14– Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘He who obeys an indifferent person ends up losing his rights and he who obeys a traitor ends up losing his friends.’[Nahj al-Balagha, Saying 239] |
