46ـ الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) ـ في قولهِ تعالى: «وكانَ تَحتَهُ كَنْزٌ لَهُما»ـ: كانَ ذلكَ الكنزُ لَوحاً مِن ذهبٍ فيه مَكتوبٌ: ... عَجِبتُ لِمَن يَرَى الدنيا وتَصَرُّفَ أهلِها حالاً بعدَ حالٍ كيفَ يَطمئنُّ إلَيها؟! |
| 46– Imam Ali (AS) with regards to Allah’s verse: “Under it there was a treasure belonging to them”, said, ‘that (the treasure) was a golden tablet upon which was written… : I wonder at those who see the world and the fluctuating states that people experience, how can they be satisfied with it?’[Ma`ani al-Akhbar, p. 200, no. 1] |

47ـ الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): اُنظُرُوا إلى الدنيا نَظَرَ الزاهدِينَ فيها ، فإنّها عَن قليلٍ تُزيلُ الساكنَ ، وتَفجَعُ المُترَفَ فلا تَغُرَّنّكُم كَثرَةُ ما يُعجِبُكُم فيها لِقلَّةِ ما يَصحَبُكُم مِنها. |
| 47– Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘Look at the world through the eyes of those who have renounced it, for verily its inhabitants are quick to depart it and its opulence inflicts distress. So do not allow the abundance of what amazes you therein to deceive you, for it is but a little that you will take with you thereof.’[Bihar al-Anwar, v. 78, p. 20, no. 79] |
|
48ـ الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): اُنظُرْ إلى الدنيا نَظَرَ الزاهدِ المُفارقِ ، ولا تَنظُرْ إلَيها نَظَرَ العاشِقِ الوامِقِ . |
| 48– Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘View the world through the eyes of one who has renounced it and separated from it, and do not view it through the eyes of one who loves it passionately and tenderly.’[Ghurar al-Hikam, no. 2386] |
|
49ـ الإمامُ الصّادقُ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): إن كانتِ الدنيا فانيَةً فالطُّمأنينَةُ إلَيها لِماذا؟! |
| 49– Imam al-Sadiq (AS) said, ‘If this world is transient, then why be satisfied with it?’[Bihar al-Anwar, v. 73, p. 88, no. 54] |
