![The intelligent person is one
who does not waste his [time and] energy in that which does not benefit him, and does not [strive to] acquire that which will

![Imam Ali (a) has said, “… Verily this world has turned back and announced its departure, and
the Hereafter has come forward and its approach is visible. Indeed, today is the preparation and tomorrow is the race. The place to run to is Paradise while the end [for the loser] is Hell. ...”
