Imam Ali (AS) said, Never pursue the faults of people, for indeed if you think about it, you have of your own faults that which will keep you occupied from finding faults in others.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : لاتَتَّبِعَنَّ عُيُوبَ النّاسِ فَإنَّ لَكَ مِنْ عُيُوبِكَ إنْ عَقَلْتَ ما يَشْغَلُكَ أنْ تَعيبَ أحَداً
