Among the Concise Words of the Messenger of Allah (Peace Be Upon Him)
وَ قَالَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: "إِنِّي لَأَرْحَمُ ثَلاَثَةً وَ حَقٌّ لَهُمْ أَنْ يُرْحَمُوا عَزِيزٌ أَصَابَتْهُ مَذَلَّةٌ بَعْدَ اَلْعِزِّ وَ غَنِيٌّ أَصَابَتْهُ حَاجَةٌ بَعْدَ اَلْغِنَى وَ عَالِمٌ يَسْتَخِفُّ بِهِ أَهْلُهُ وَ اَلْجَهَلَةُ".
Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام, said: "Indeed, I feel mercy for three people, and it is their right to be shown mercy: A noble person who has been humiliated after his honor, A wealthy person who has fallen into poverty after wealth, And a scholar who is belittled by his own people and the ignorant."
