Pearl of Wisdom
'The carnal, seducing soul flatters as a hypocrite flatters, and simulates the characteristics of an agreeing friend, and as soon as it tricks and overcomes him [man], it overpowers him as an enemy overpowers and controls him like a controlling tyrant, and hence it [the soul] drives a man towards his ruin.'
Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib [as] Ghurar al-Hikam, no. 2106
