If aman's heart gets attached to this world, he will be afflicted with three things; continuousworry that will never let him be comfortable, an unending greed and an unachievabledesire. 76- Contentment is as good as wealth and good humor is as good as blessing ofGod. 77- Imam Ali was asked about the meaning of Allah's saying after praising a virtuousman or woman: (And we will most certainly make him live a happy life).
