The commander of the faithful, Imam Ali (A.S) said:
"The worth of every man is in his attainments."
[Nahjul Balaghah, Saying No.482]
The real value of a person is in his knowledge (and the perfection of his attainments). His worth and position would be in accordance with the status of knowledge and attainments he holds. Eyes that are conscious of real values do not look at the face, features, tallness of stature, size or worldly pomp and position but look at the attainments of a person and assess his worth according to these attainments. The conclusion is that a man should strive to acquire distinction and knowledge.
The worth of every person is according to the extent of his knowledge.
[Ghurar -ul- Hakam, p. 341]
