In response to Talha and Zubayr''s complaint for not consulting them in the affairs

ثم قال (عليه السلام): ‏رَحِمَ اللَّهُ رَجُلًا رَأَى حَقّاً فَأَعَانَ عَلَيْهِ أَوْ رَأَى جَوْراً فَرَدَّهُ وَكَانَ عَوْناً بِالْحَقِّ عَلَى صَاحِبِهِ.
Then Amīr al-mu’minīn added: May Allāh have mercy on the person who, when he sees the truth, supports it, when he sees the wrong, rejects it, and who helps the truth against him who is on the wrong.
