When Amir al-mu'minin was warned of being killed by deceit, he said:

Pearl of Wisdom

in his letter to Malik al-Ashtar when he appointed him governor of Egypt; said, 'Thereafter, look into the affairs of your executives. Give them appointment after tests and do not appoint them according to partiality or favouritism, because these two things constitute the sources of injustice and unfairness. Select from among them those who are people of experience and modesty, hailing from virtuous houses, having preceded in [embracing] Islam.'

Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib [as]

When Amir al-mu'minin was warned of being killed by deceit, he said:

Sermon 61 When Amir al-mu'minin was warned of being killed by deceit, he said:

Surely, there is a strong shield of Allah over me. When my day would come it would get away from me and hand me over to death. At that time neither an arrow would go amiss nor a wound would heal up.
