Imam Ali (AS) said, There are three signs of the unjust among the people: being unjust to the one who is above him by disobedience, and to the one below him by overruling him, and supporting the faction of oppressors.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : لِلظّالِمِ مِنَ الرِّجالِ ثَلاثُ عَلامات: يَظْلِمُ مَنْ فَوْقَهُ بِالمَعْصِيَةِ وَ مَنْ دُوْنَهُ بِالغَلَبَةِ وَ يُظاهِرُ الْقَوْمَ الظَّلَمَةَ
