Imam Ali (AS) said, So be wary of [your duty towards] Allah with the God-wariness of one who thinks about returning towards the Hereafter, the end [and consequence] of his lifes journey and the place of his [final] return, so he remedies his past errors and increases his righteous actions.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : فَاتَّقُوا اللّهَ تَقِيَّةَ مَنْ نَظَرَ في كَرَّةِ المَوْئِلِ وَ عاقِبَةِ المَصْدَرِ وَ مَغَبَّةِ المَرْجَعِ فَتَدارَكَ فارِطَ الزَّلَلِ وَ اسْتَكْثَرَ مِنْ صالِحِ العَمَلِ
