Hawzah News Agency – The commander of the faithful, Imam Ali peace be upon him says:

إنْ لَم تَكُن حَليماً فَتَحَلَّمْ؛ فإنَّهُ قَلَّ مَن تَشبَّهَ بقَومٍ إلّا أوْشَكَ أنْ يكونَ مِنهُم.

'If you are not of the clement ones then feign clemency for verily few people who imitate a group fail to become one of them.'
