Imam Ali (AS) said, It behoves the intelligent person to work for the Hereafter and try to increase his provisions before he passes away and is lowered into his grave.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : يَنْبَغي لِلْعاقِلِ أنْ يَعْمَلَ لِلْمَعادِ وَ يَسْتَكْثِرَ مِنَ الزَّادِ قَبْلَ زَهُوقِ نَفْسِهِ وَ حُلُولِ رَمْسِهِ
