Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘Look at the people of the Prophets household. Adhere to their direction, follow their footsteps, because they will never remove you from guidance, and will never throw you into destruction. If they sit down [i.e. desist from revolting], you sit down, and if they rise up, you rise up.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): انْظُروا أهلَ بيتِ نبيِّكُمْ، فالْزَموا سَمْتَهُمْ، واتَّبِعوا أثَرَهُمْ، فلَنْ يُخْرِجُوكُمْ مِن هُدىً، ولَنْ يُعيدوكُمْ في رَدىً، فإن لَبَدوا فالْبُدوا، وإن نَهَضوا فانْهَضوا.
