الإمام علي (عليه السَّلام):
وَ إِنْ عَقَدْتَ بَيْنَكَ وَ بَيْنَ [عَدُوٍّ لَكَ‏] عَدُوِّكَ عُقْدَةً أَوْ أَلْبَسْتَهُ مِنْكَ ذِمَّةً فَحُطْ عَهْدَكَ بِالْوَفَاءِ وَ ارْعَ ذِمَّتَكَ بِالْأَمَانَةِ وَ اجْعَلْ نَفْسَكَ جُنَّةً دُونَ مَا أَعْطَيْت .‏

And if you make a covenant between yourself and your enemy or give him a surety [against life or property], then stand by your pact with loyalty and observe your liability with trustworthiness and make yourself the shield for your word
