At the Time of Injustice
Imām Ali (AS) seized every opportunity to promote the culture of fighting against oppression, protecting the oppressed, seeking help from people to carry out social reforms and to make social links and relations.
Oppose the oppressor and support the oppressed.
Do not oppress and tyrannize anybody because you surely do not like to be oppressed and tyrannized.
To oppress a weak and helpless person is the worst form of ferocity (brutality).
Do not get worried and depressed over the oppressions because whoever oppresses you is in reality doing himself harm and is trying to find ways for your good.
To be submissive, humble, crawling and begging when one is needy, powerless and poor and to be arrogant, oppressing and cruel when in power and opulence are two very ugly traits of the human character.
The world is a dangerous place to live, not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don't do anything about it.” ― Albert Einstein
Martin Luther King Jr.:
The hottest place in Hell is reserved for those who remain neutral in times of great moral conflict.
If a man has not discovered something that he will die for, he isn't fit to live.
Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.
He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it. He who accepts evil without protesting against it is really cooperating with it.
The ultimate tragedy is not the oppression and cruelty by the bad people but the silence over that by the good people.
