Whatever Imam Ali (A.S.) found himself free from the administrative work, he used to go to the market place and announce, “O people! Fear Allah! Weigh and measure with justice. Do not cheat people (by giving less) and do not spread corruption in the earth.”
One day ‘Ali (A.S.) saw a saffron seller short-weighing. He had applied oil to his hand and very cunningly he applied it to the pan of the balance which held the saffron. ‘Ali (A.S.) picked up the saffron from the balance and said, “First rectify your balance, then if you like you can give more than that.”
