The scales of justice

The scales of justice
 

Amir ul-Mu’minÄ«n ‘Ali (a.s.) advises his son Imam Hasan Mujtaba (a.s.) in his will:

“O my child, make yourself the measure (for dealings) between you and others. Thus, you should desire for others what you desire for yourself and hate for others what you hate for yourself. Do not oppress, as you do not like to be oppressed. Do well to others, as you would like good to be done to you. Regard bad for yourself whatever you regard bad for others. Accept that (treatment) from others which you would like others to accept from you.”

(Nahjul Balagha)
