Additional quotes by Ali al-Rida

Some signs of understanding are: clemency, knowledge, and silence. Silence is one of the doors to wisdom. It brings about love and is evidence for all good.

The miserly one is never restful; the envious is never pleased; the grumbler is never loyal; the liar has no conscience.

One who offers (suggests) what he doesn't know, will be under the curse of the angels of the heavens and the earth.

Worship is not the abundance of prayer and fasting; rather it is the abundance of reflecting on the affairs of God, the Great and Almighty. - Ali al-Rida
