description: Selections from Sermons, Letters and Sayings of Amir al-Mu'minin, 'Ali ibn Abi TalibWhat can be said about this Imam? It is very difficult to fully explain his attributes and qualities. He was the most learned person, the most brave man and the most eloquent speaker and orator. His piety, his love of God, his sincerity and fortitude in following religion were of such high order that none could aspire to reach him....he hated diplomacy and loved truth and justice, his was the policy as dictated by God....learned men amongst Jews and Christians love him and such philosophers who come to know of his teachings bow down before his incomparable vast knowledge. Roman kings would have his pictures in their palaces and great warriors would engrave his name on their swords.
