Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘A man who allows himself to be imprisoned without sustaining severe wounds should not be ransomed by the treasury, rather his family may choose to pay his ransom from his own money.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): مَن اسْتُؤْسرَ مِن غيرِ جِراحةٍ مُثقِلةٍ فلا يُفْدى مِن بيتِ المالِ، ولكنْ يُفْدى مِن مالهِ إن أحبَّ أهلُهُ.
