لا يَنبَغي لِمَن عَرَفَ عَظَمَةَ اللّهِ أن يَتَعَظَّمَ؛ فإنّ رِفعَةَ الّذينَ يَعلَمونَ ما عَظَمَتُهُ أن يَتَواضَعُوا لَهُ.

Imam Ali (as):

It is not appropriate for one who knows the Greatness of Allah to consider himself great, for verily the elevation of those who know His Greatness lies in humbling themselves before Him.

الإمام الكاظم (عليه السَّلام):

إنّ الزَّرعَ يَنبُتُ في السَّهلِ ولا يَنبُتُ في الصَّفا؛ فكذلكَ الحِكمَةُ تَعمُرُ في قَلبِ المُتَواضِعِ، ولا تَعمُرُ في قَلبِ المُتَكبِّرِ الجَبّارِ؛ لأنّ اللّهَ جَعلَ التَّواضُعَ آلَةَ العَقلِ، وجَعَلَ التَّكبُّرَ مِن آلَةِ الجَهلِ.

Imam al-Kazim (as):

A plant grows on level ground and not on the hard terrain, and similarly wisdom flourishes in the heart of the humble, and does not flourish in the heart of the haughty and overbearing, because Allah made humbleness the instrument of the intellect and haughtiness the instrument of ignorance.

رسول الله (صلی الله علیه و آله):

مَن تَواضَعَ للّهِ رَفَعَهُ اللّهُ، فهُو في نَفسِهِ ضَعيفٌ وفي أعيُنِ النّاسِ عَظيمٌ، ومَن تَكبَّرَ وَضَعَهُ اللّهُ، فهُو في أعيُنِ النّاسِ صَغيرٌ وفي نَفسِهِ كَبيرٌ؛ حتّى لَهُو أهوَنُ علَيهِم مِن كَلبٍ أو خِنْزيرٍ.

The Prophet Muhammad (S):

He who humbles himself for Allah, Allah will raise him such that he is weak in himself but strong in the eyes of others. And he who is haughty, Allah will degrade him such that he will be small in the eyes of others and big in his own, until he will be more despicable to them than a pig or a dog.

الإمام جعفر الصادق (عليه السَّلام ):

إنّ مِن التَّواضُعِ أن يَرضى الرّجُلُ بِالمَجلِسِ دُونَ المَجلِسِ، وأن يُسَلِّمَ على مَن يَلقى، وأن يَترُكَ المِراءَ وإن كانَ مُحِقّا، ولا يُحِبَّ أن يُحمَدَ علَى التَّقوى.

Imam Ja‘far al-Ṣadiq (as):

Imam al-Sadiq (AS), from his fathers (AS) said, Humbleness is for a man to be content to sit in any place and not a particular place, to greet those he meets, to leave disputation even if he is right, and to not like to be praised for piety.

الإمام جعفر الصادق (عليه السَّلام ):

إنَّ مِن التَّواضُعِ أن يَجلِسَ الرّجُلُ دُونَ شَرَفِهِ.

Humbleness is when a man sits in a place lower than his rank.

الإمام الرّضا (عليه السَّلام ):

التَّواضُعُ أن تُعطِيَ النّاسَ ما تُحِبُّ أن تُعطاهُ.

الإمام علي (عليه السَّلام):

ما أحسَنَ تَواضُعَ الأغنياءِ لِلفُقَراءِ طَلَبا لِما عِندَ اللّهِ، وأحسَنُ مِنهُ تِيهُ الفُقَراءِ علَى الأغنِياءِ اتِّكالًا علَى اللّهِ.

Imam Ali (as):

How good it is for the rich to be humble towards the poor so that they may earn what is with Allah, and better than this is for the poor to preserve their dignity before the rich out of reliance upon Allah.
