The Truth: Imam Ali (as) - Part 4

Let not your attention towards the rights of a person [who is close to you] prevent you from establishing justice against him

Falsehood and truth do not go together

None is patient in the face of truth except the judicious and intelligent one

There is no messenger more conveying than the truth

There is no companion who is dearer than the truth

One who takes the support of truth is not defeated

One who argues by the truth is not defeated

One who elevates himself by truth is not overtaken (or abased)

None is petient with the truth except the one who knows its merit

A man cannot be faulted for taking his right, rather he can only be censored for taking that which is not [rightfully] his

A little truth repels much falsehood

[About the ones who did not participate in the battle]: They forsook the truth and did not assist the falsehood

The tuth is illuminated and free from prejudice and hypocrisy

Act upon the truth even if it is against your desires and do not sell your Hereafter for this world

Cling to the truth and it will take you to the place of the followers of truth, on the day when judgement will not be made except with truth.

Cling to the truth and savation will cling to you

Recognize the right of the one who knows your right, [be he] young or old, inferior or superior

Indeed, one who is not benefitted by the truth is harmed by falsehood, and one who is not set straight by guidance is dragged down by misguidance

The biggest loser is one who is able to speak the truth but still does not speak it
