Imam Sadiq (a.s) said: “Whenever the world favors someone it will even give him the goods of other people, and whenever it turns its back on someone, it will even take away his own goods.”
عن أبي عبد الله (عليه السلام) قال
إذا أقبلت الدنيا على إنسان أعطته محاسن غيره، وإذا أدبرت عنه سلبته محاسن نفسه.
