The rightful Imam, Amir al-Mu’minin Ali (as), the successor of the Prophet (as) and the Proof of God(Allah) to all creatures and humans of the world, says:
“In the presence of seven groups, hide seven actions to achieve happiness:
1- In the presence of the poor, do not talk about your wealth.
2- In the presence of the ill, do not boast about your health.
3. In the presence of the weak, do not demonstrate your power.
4- In the presence of the grief-stricken, do not express happiness.
5. In the presence of the captive, do not boast about your freedom.
6. In the presence of those having no child, do not boast about your children.
7. In the presence of the orphans, do not talk about your parents.
This is an example of Amir al-Mu’minin Ali (as) beautiful moral advice to people.
Would you think that Islam with such advice from its rightful Imam is a dangerous or violent religion?
