General headline on the value of restraint and control of desires

According to breaking news, Imam Ali (AS) says in Nahj al-Balagha: “When ability increases, desire decreases.” The more a person masters the self and their wants, the farther they are from attachment and greed…. True asceticism is not about appearance or possessions; sometimes the most valuable asceticism is remaining hidden from others’ view. Imam Ali (AS) says in Nahj al-Balagha: “The highest asceticism is to conceal one’s asceticism.” This means a pious person does not act to be seen or attract others’ attention; the value of their deed is greater when it is without fanfare and for the pleasure of God. 🇮🇷 ✊
