Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘O Allah please do not make me require a need from bad people from among Your creation, and whatever You make me need, let it be from those with the most beautiful [happiest] faces, who are the most open-handed, have the most eloquent tongues and the least likely to remind me of their favour.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : اللّهُمَّ لا تَجعَلْ بي حاجَةً إلى أحدٍ مِن شِرارِ خَلْقِكَ ، وما جَعَلْتَ بي من حاجَةٍ فاجْعَلْها إلى أحْسَنِهِم وَجْهاً ، وأسْخاهُم بها نَفْساً ، وأطْلَقِهِم بها لِساناً ، وأقلِّهِم علَيَّ بها مَنّاً.
