Kisi ne Hazrat ALI R.A se poocha:
“Dost aur bhai main kya farq hai?”
Aap ne farmaya:
“Bhai sona hai aur dost heera hai.”
Us aadmi ne kaha:
“Aap ne bhai ko kam qeemat aur dost ko qeemti cheez se kyun tashbeeh di?”
To aap ne farmaya:
“Sone main agar darar aa jaye to us ko pighla kar bilkul pehlay jaisa banaya ja sakta hai. Jab ke heeray main aik darar aa jai to wo kabhi bhi pehlay jaisa nahi ban sakta.’
