In Sermon 103,In Sermon 103, Ali: About attributes of the scholarly personAli: About attributes of the scholarly person

The learned person is he who knows his worth. Suffice it for a man to remain ignorant if he knows not his worth.

Certainly, the despised man with Allah is he whom Allah has left him for his own self. Such a person goes astray from the right path, and proceeds without a guide.

If he is called to the plantation of this world he is active, but if he is called to the plantation of the next world he is passive.

As though what he is active for is enjoined upon him whereas in whatever he is passive was not required of him.
