Pearl of Wisdom

There is no place dearer to Allah, most High, than the mas'a [place of running between the mounts of al-Safa and al-Marwa in Makkah], for every overbearing person is lowered and debased before Him there.'

Imam Ja'far ibn Muhammad al-Sadiq [as]
Bihar al-Anwar, v. 99. p. 45, no. 34

Letter 76 When Imam Ali (a) sent Ibn Abbas as his representative to Basra, he gave him the following instructions.

Treat people kindly, receive them in audience, do not be very harsh in issuing and enforcing orders, do not lose temper because this weakness is always a good opening for Satan to find its way into your mind. Always keep this in mind that the thing which takes you nearer to Allah will carry you away from Hell and the thing which drives you away from Allah will drive you towards Hell.
