The Nicer Thing: Simplicity in Islam

The Nicer Thing: Simplicity in Islam

One day our first Imam, Imam Ali (A.S) went to the market with his servant, Qambar. There he bought two shirts, one which was really nice and expensive and the other which was not as nice. When Imam Ali (A.S) returned home he gave the better shirt to Qambar and kept the other one for himself. Qambar told Imam Ali (A.S) that it would look better if he wore the nicer shirt as he was the leader of the Muslims (Commander of the Faithful) while Qambar himself was only a servant. Imam Ali (A.S) answered that Qambar should wear the nicer shirt because he was younger and so it would suit him better; but more importantly Imam Ali (A.S) told him that he was a guide for the Muslims and so had to set a good example for them by leading a simple life.
