The three worst things that affect the best creatures of Allah

312. Ibn Mahboub, from Malik Bin Atiyya, from Abu Hamza Al-Thumaly, who has narrated: Ali Bin Al-Husayn عليه الصلاة والسلام has said: ‘There is no nobility for the Qureysh, nor for the Arabs except by humbleness, and there is no prestige except by piety, and there are no deeds except by the intention, and there is no worship except by the understanding. Indeed! The most hateful of the people to Allah عز وجل is the one who emulates the Sunnah of an Imam عليه الصلاة والسلام but does not emulate him عليه الصلاة والسلام in his deeds’.
