Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘Lo! Verily the example of the family of Muhammad (SAWA) is like that of the stars in the sky. When one star sets, another one rises. So you are in a position that Allahs blessings on you have been perfected and he has shown you what you have wished for.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): ألاَ إنّ مَثَلَ آلِ مُحمّدٍ (صَلَّيَ اللهُ عَلَيهِ وَ آلِهِ) كَمَثَلِ نُجومِ السَّماءِ ؛ إذا خَوى نَجْمٌ طَلَعَ نَجْمٌ، فكَأنَّكُمْ قَد تَكامَلَتْ مِنَ اللّهِ فيكُمُ الصَّنائعُ، وأراكُمْ ما كُنْتُمْ تَأملونَ .
