Imam al-Sadiq (AS) was asked about noble moral traits, to which he replied, ‘Pardoning someone who has oppressed you, repairing broken ties, giving to the one who has deprived you, and speaking the truth even if it is against yourself.
الإمامُ الصّادقُ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) ـ وقد سُئلَ عن مَكارِمِ الأخْلاقِ ـ : العَفْوُ عَمّنْ ظَلَمَكَ ، وصِلَةُ مَن قَطعَكَ ، و إعْطاءُ مَن حَرمَكَ ، وقَولُ الحقِّ ولَو على نَفْسِكَ .
