About the way of preaching and counselling

Pearl of Wisdom

I went to visit him [i.e. Imam ?Ali] (AS) on one of the festivals, and he had a small table in front of him on which was wheat bread, and a plate of khatifa and milbana so I asked, ?O Commander of the Faithful, it is a day of celebration and you are eating khatifa?!, to which he replied, 'It is only a day of celebration for whoever has been forgiven.'

Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib [as]

Bihar al-Anwar, v. 40, p. 326, no. 7

Sermon 80 About the way of preaching and counselling
