Imam Ali (AS) said, O listener, awaken from your negligence, reduce your hastiness, brace yourself, be on your guard and remember your grave, for indeed you must pass through it.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : فَأفِقْ أيُّهَا السّامِعُ مِنْ غَفْلَتِكَ وَ اخْتَصِرْ مِنْ عَجَلَتِكَ وَ أشْدُدْ أزْرَكَ وَ خُذْ حِذْرَكَ وَ اذْكُرْ قَبْرَكَ فَإنَّ عَلَيْهِ مَمَرَّكَ
