From the life of Hazrat Ali (ra) bin Abi Talib
Hazrat Musleh-e-Maud (ra) writes:
“The Holy Prophet (sa) once advised Hazrat Ali (ra) saying, ‘O Ali! Even if one person accepts Islam due to your preaching, that would be better for you than if you had a large herd of sheep’s and goats that were passing between two mountains and seeing them would please you.”
