Lesson one hundred four :The best heritage

Imam Ali( A. S. )says:

خَيْرُ ما وَرَثَ الآباءُ لِلأَبْناءَ الْأَدَبَ‌

Translation

The best heritage which fathers leave for their children is courtesy..

Brief description

Courtesy is the proper encounters and relations associated with respect and honor. Courtesy is sometimes before God's people and sometimes before God. In both cases, it is one of the great human capitals as the code of success in all fields.

And on this account, Imam Ali( A. S. )has called courtesy as the highest heritage which a father leaves for his child. Courtesy is the source of affection, sincerity, friendship, and union and an important factor for the effectiveness of speech and progress in social programs.
