Imam Ali (AS) said, 'By the One whose Hearing encompasses all voices, no sooner does one fill somebody else's heart with happiness than Allah creates a special grace for him from that very happiness, such that when he is faced with a calamity, he is able to pass over it like water flows over a slope, until he chases it away as wild camels are chased away.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): فَوَالذي وَسِعَ سَمعُهُ الأصواتَ، ما مِن أحَدٍ أودَعَ قَلباً سُروراً إلّا وخَلَقَ اللّهُ لَهُ مِن ذلكَ السُّرورِ لُطفاً ، فإذا نَزَلَتْ بهِ نائبَةٌ جَرى إلَيها كالماءِ في انحِدارِهِ حتّى يَطرُدَها عَنهُ ، كَما تُطرَدُ غَرِيبَةُ الإبلِ.
