Among the Concise Words of the Messenger of Allah (Peace Be Upon Him)
وَ قَالَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: "خَمْسٌ هُنَّ كَمَا أَقُولُ لَيْسَتْ لِبَخِيلٍ رَاحَةٌ وَ لاَ لِحَسُودٍ لَذَّةٌ وَ لاَ لِلْمَمْلُوكِ وَفَاءٌ وَ لاَ لِكَذُوبٍ مُرُوءَةٌ وَ لاَ يَسُودُ سَفِيهٌ".
Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام said: "Five things are exactly as I say: A miser will never find comfort, A jealous person will never experience pleasure, A slave will not have loyalty, A liar will have no honor, And a foolish person will never attain leadership."
