This is the order issued by Imam Ali (a) to his generals when he took over rulership of the Muslim State.

Pearl of Wisdom

'A hypocrite, when he looks he is frivolous, when he is silent he forgets, when he speaks he prattles, when he becomes wealthy he tyrannizes, when hardship afflicts him he becomes noisy, so he is close to discontentment and far from contentment. The least of things make him discontented with Allah, and he is never content, even with much. He intends to do a lot of evil and commits some of them, and he regrets the evil deeds that pass him by and how he did not manage to commit them.?

Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib [as]

Tuhaf al-'Uqul, p. 212

Letter 79 This is the order issued by Imam Ali (a) to his generals when he took over rulership of the Muslim State.

Verily, previous rulers have come to sad ends because they prevented people from getting their just rights, they got corrupted and could be purchased, when they were tempted by sins and vices, they were lead astray and they followed the wicked lead.
