Hawzah News Agency – Imam Ali (AS), being seen wearing a wraparound cloth that was worn-out and patched, was asked about it, to which he replied,
يَخشَعُ لَهُ القَلبُ، وتَذِلُّ بهِ النفسُ، ويَقتَدي بهِ المُؤمنونَ.
'With it the heart becomes humble, the self is humiliated, and the believers follow its example.'
