Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘Stay with the greater majority, for verily Allahs hand is with the [larger] group. Beware of separation for verily the deviant amongst you is the victim of Satan just as the deviant amongst the cattle is the victim of a wolf.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : والْزَموا السَّوادَ الأعْظَمَ ، فإنَّ يَدَ اللّهِ مَع الجَماعةِ ، و إيّاكُم والفُرْقَةَ ، فإنَّ الشّاذَّ مِن النّاسِ للشَّيطانِ، كما أنّ الشّاذَّ مِن الغَنَمِ للذِّئبِ.
