If a man had a side of good...

If a man had a side of good, it is certain that it is connected with other sides, and if it certain that it is connected with other sides, and if is certain that these sides would appear on occasions.

And this insight has a frank reference to the idea that existence is one, balanced, just, and good whatever it is a universal, great existence or a particu-lar, small one manifested by the man: “If a man possesses a pure quality wait her sisters of him” Fifth: And such a good contagion among the good qualities is a similar contagion that shfts from good to evil between people and people: “Associate with people of virtue; you will become one of them.” “seek good and its doers”.

Sixth: The deep belief that man’s power, whoever he is, is to follow the course of good, and that no one is worthier than another in this course: “No one of you should say that another person is more worthy than I in doing good.” Seventh: One should not regard his much good acts as too much.

Rather what he acts of the good remains little, however much it was, because the satisfaction with an amount of good is a denial of the great good of existence and is a denial of the power of man into whom the great world is enfolded: “They are not satisfied with their little good acts, and do not regard their plenty acts as great. They always blame themselves and are afraid of being neglectful in their actions”.

Eight: It is necessary to refer to the deep insight that Ali casts on the concepts of human tendency towards that which makes people, all people, be in a bliss. If we think over the works of most of the thinkers who paid their attentions to people’s concerns, we find that the word ‘happiness’ is mentioned in these works, and that the signifi-cance of this word is itself the pivot of their researches and the goal of what they wanted.

Yet, Ali replaces the word ‘happiness’ with what is longer in range, deeper in sense, wider in horizon, and grander in concern with which human nature should be characterized and long for. He replaced this ‘happiness’ with the word ‘good’, then he was not directing hearts to that but to this. For happiness is restricted to a person’s limit, while good is not restricted in such a limit. So good is greater!

Then good contains happiness, but it does not contain it the good, then it is more comprehensive!
