المُحافَظَةُ عَلَى الحِكمَةِ Protection of Wisdom

31ـ الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : إنّ الحُكَماءَ ضَيَّعوا الحِكمَةَ لَمّا وَضَعوها عِند غَيرِ أهْلِها.

31– Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘Verily the wise men lost wisdom when they deposited it with those who were unworthy of it.’[Qasas al-Anbiya’, p. 160, no. 176]
 

32ـ الإمامُ الكاظمُ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : لا تَمْنَحوا الجُهّالَ الحِكمَةَ فتَظْلِموها، ولا تَمْنَعوها أهْلَها فتَظْلِموهُم.

32– Imam al-Kazim (AS) said, ‘Do not grant the ignorant ones wisdom for they will not do justice to it, and do not deprive it to those who are worthy of it for you will do injustice to them.’[Bihar al-Anwar, v. 78, p. 303, no. 1]
