Ali ibn Abu-Talib (a.) Was asked what was good, and he replied: Good is not that you have a lot of money and a lot of children, or that you have a lot of knowledge and mildness, or that you are in front of them Praise people of your worship and, if you have done something good, praise God, and if you have done something bad, ask God for forgiveness. There is nothing good in the world except for two people: one who has sinned and repairs his sinful deeds, and one who hurries to do good works.
