دیدگاه امام علی (ع) درباره ی علم و ثروت
Which is better:Knowledge or wealth?
"Knowledge is better than wealth because it protects you while you have to guard wealth. it decreases if you keep on spending it but the more you make use of knowledge ,the more it increases . what you get through wealth disappears as soon as wealth disappears but what you achieve through knowledge will remain even after you."
Hazrat Imam Ali (AS) always has termed knowledge precious and supreme as compared to wealth in his sage-like sayings. In the above-mentioned saying he has given three arguments for the supremacy of knowledge over wealth:
i. Knowledge protects a man from all sorts of troubles confronting him just as a light with the help of which we can see the right and wrong path. As againstthis he has to protect wealth.
