Pearl of Wisdom

in his advice to Kumay l said, ?O Kumay l, in every race there are groups better than groups, so beware of debating with the vile of them, and if they insult you, then tolerate them, and be of those whom Allah has described in His verse: and when the ignorant address them, say, 'Peace!'.

Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib [as]
