“It’s not enough to be fed up by injustic

 

“It’s not enough to be fed up by injustic,

We ought to tolerate the administration of justic

The people  rushed imam Ali’s house and insisted that,

“ O, Ali(pbuh) please assume the responsibility for the givernment”

But the imam stated,” No! leave me alone “

His majesty ‘s refusal was due to the matter that,

Although the people were fed up with oppression, they didn’t call for justice anyhow.
