Imam Ali (AS) said, Look at this world as those who are uninterested in it would look at it, having diverted themselves from it, for it will, by Allah, shortly turn out its inhabitants and cause grief to the one who is living in luxury and the one who feels safe.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : اُنْظُروا إلَى الدُّنيا نَظَرَ الزَّاهِدينَ فيها الصَّارِفينَ عَنْها فَإنَّها وَاللّهِ عَمّا قَلِيل تُزيلُ الثّاوِيَ السَّاكِنَ وَ تَفْجَعُ المُتْرَفَ الآمِنَ
