Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘All acts of righteousness and striving in the way of Allah are as mere spittle in the deep sea compared to enjoining good and prohibiting wrong.
الإمامُ عليٌ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): وما أعمالُ البِرِّ كُلُّها والجِهادُ في سَبيلِ اللّهِ عِندَ الأمرِ بِالمَعروفِ والنَّهيِ عَنِ المُنكَرِ ، إلّا كَنَفثَةٍ في بَحرٍ لُجِّيٍّ.
