Islam: good turns - Imam Ali (as)

Showing kindness to the enemy is one of the two triumphs.

Following up one favour with another favour is from the perfection of munificence.

Doing good is the nature of the righteious and doing evil is the nature of the wicked.

Benevolence from the wicket corrupts just as much as it reforms from the honourable.

If a righteious act is not nurtured, it wears away, just like worn out garments and dilapidated dwellings.

Do good and you shall enthral.

Bestow goodness and you shall advance.

Do good and you will be thanked.

Forget your gift, [and] remember your promise.

Give and you shall become capable (or be chosen).
