Imam Ali (AS) said, 'There are two types of sustenance: the sustenance that you seek out, and the sustenance that seeks you out, which even if you do not pursue it, it pursues you.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): إنَّ الرِّزقَ رِزقانِ: رِزقٌ تَطلُبُهُ ، ورِزقٌ يَطلُبُكَ ، فإن أنتَ لَم تَأتِهِ أتاكَ .
