In Al-Shahab it is narrated that God's Prophet (a.s) said
“Three things ruin man and three things save him. The three things that ruin man are stinginess, following selfish desires and conceit. The three things that save man are fearing God in public and in private, moderation at times of affluence and poverty, and being just at times of anger and contentment.”
من كتاب الشهاب: قال رسول الله (صلى الله عليه وآله): ثلاث مهلكات وثلاث منجيات، فالثلاث المهلكات: شح مطاع، وهوى متبع، وإعجاب المرء بنفسه، والثلاث المنجيات: خشية الله في السر والعلانية، والقصد في الفقر والغنى، والعدل في الغضب والرضا.
