Amr ibn Shimr narrated that Ameer al-Momineen (a.s) delivered a sermon in Kufa and said
“O' people! Who are without inheritors among you?” They said: “Those who die without leaving a child behind.” He said: “A real person without any inheritors is one who dies without already having sent a child to claim his loss as a loss for God's sake, even if he leaves many children behind.” Then he asked: “Who is poor among you?” They said: “Those who have no property.” He said: “A real poor person is one who has not sent anything ahead of him to claim it to be for God's sake, even if he leaves a lot of wealth behind.” He then asked: “Who is a wrestling champion among you?” They said: “One whom no one can defeat.” He said: “A real champion is one who remembers God and patiently quenches his anger whenever Satan beats his heart with it's fist to raise his anger.”
عن عمرو بن شمر قال
خطب أمير المؤمنين (عليه السلام) في الكوفة فقال: أيها الناس، ما الرقوب فيكم؟ فقالوا: الرجل يموت ولم يترك ولدا، فقال: بل الرقوب حق الرقوب رجل مات ولم يقدم من ولده أحدا يحتسبه عند الله وإن كانوا كثيرا من بعده، ثم قال: ما الصعلوك فيكم؟ فقالوا: الرجل الذي لامال له، قال: بل الصعلوك من لم يقدم من ماله شيئا عند الله وإن كان كثيرا من بعده، ثم قال: ما الصرعة فيكم؟ قالوا: الشديد القوي الذي لا يوضع جنبه، فقال: بل الصرعة حق الصرعة رجل وكز الشيطان في قلبه فاشتد غضبه وظهر دمه، ثم ذكر الله فصرع بحلمه غضبه.
