'''''Nahj al-balāgha''''' (Arabic: نهج | '''''Nahj al-balāgha''''' (Arabic:{{iarabic| نهج البلاغة}}) is an anthology of sayings and writings of [[Imam 'Ali (a)]] which have been compiled by [[al-Sayyid al-Radi]] in late 4th/10th century (finished in [[400]]/1009-1010). The criteria for selecting the sayings has been the eloquence of speech. The eloquence in this compilation is at such a high level that even though al-Sayyid al-Radi was a great poet and distinguished man of literature and had great works, regarded this compilation an honor for himself. | ||
Throughout the sermons, Imam (a) calls people to obey God's orders and abandon prohibitions and in his letters advises his agents to observe the rights of people. Kalimat al-qisar [short sayings] of ''Nahj al-balagha'' are a collection of wise sayings stated at the peak of eloquence. | Throughout the sermons, Imam (a) calls people to obey God's orders and abandon prohibitions and in his letters advises his agents to observe the rights of people.
