hadith 1884
Imam Ali (AS) said, Verily the value of asking is greater than the worth of what is given, so do not regard that which you give as much, for it will never be equal to the humiliation of asking.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : إنَّ قَدْرَ السُّؤالِ أكْثَرُ مِنْ قِيْمَةِ النَّوالِ فَلا تَسْتَكْثِرُوا ما أعْطَيْتُمُوهُ فَإنَّهُ لَنْ يُوازِيَ قَدْرَ السُّؤالِ
