١٠١. وَقَالَ (عليه السلام): لَا يَسْتَقِيمُ قَضَاءُ الْحَوَائِجِ إِلَّا بِثَلَاثٍ بِاسْتِصْغَارِهَا لِتَعْظُمَ وَبِاسْتِكْتَامِهَا لِتَظْهَرَ وَبِتَعْجِيلِهَا لِتَهْنُؤَ.
101. Amīr al-mu’minīn, peace be upon him, said: Fulfilment of (others’) needs becomes a lasting virtue in three ways:- regarding it small so that it attains bigness, concealing it so that it may manifest itself, and doing it quickly so that it becomes pleasant.
