الإمام علي (عليه السَّلام):
سَلْ تَفَقُّها، و لا تَسْأل تَعَنُّتا؛ فإنّ الجاهِلَ المُتَعَلِّمَ شَبيهٌ بالعالِمِ، و إنَّ العالِمَ المُتَعَسِّفَ (المُتَعَنِّفَ) شَبيهٌ بالجاهِلِ المُتَعَنِّتِ.

Imam Ali (as) said to a man who asked him regarding a puzzling issue, Ask in order to genuinely comprehend [the matter], and do not ask importunately causing further confusion thereby, for verily the ignorant person willing to learn is like a knowledgeable man, whereas the knowledgeable man who acts haphazardly is like an obstinate ignorant man.
