Hazrat `Ali, may peace be on him, says: “Tuqa (taqwa) or fear of God is the chief of ethics” (Nahju'l-Balaghah, p. 548, maxim 410). In the same book, pp. 553-54, in maxim 439, regarding asceticism (zuhd), it is said: “The entire asceticism is confined in two words of the Qur’an: God says: “That you grieve not for the sake of that which has escaped you, nor exult you because of what He has given you.” (57:23). And the one who does not grieve for the past nor exult for the future, should realise that he has seized asceticism by its two ends.”
