Imam Ali (AS) said, A person does not give his wealth to the one who has no right to it, or his favour to one who is not deserving of it, but that Allah deprives him of their gratefulness and their love, too, would be for others.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : لَمْ يَضَعِ اِمْرُءٌ مالَهُ في غَيْرِ حَقِّهِ أوْ مَعْرُوفَهُ في غَيْرِ أهْلِهِ إلاّ حَرَمَهُ اللّهُ شُكْرَهُمْ وَكانَ لِغَيْرِهِ وُدَّهُمْ
