Fear and Action

خوف اور اقدام

📜
Original Arabic • متنِ عربی

إِذَا هِبْتَ أَمْراً فَقَعْ فِيهِ، فَإِنَّ شِدَّةَ تَوَقِّيهِ أَعْظَمُ مِمَّا تَخَافُ مِنْهُ.

Urdu Translation • اردو ترجمہ

جب کسی کام سے ڈر لگے تو اس میں کود پڑو، کیونکہ اس کے بارے میں خوف و ہراس میں مبتلا رہنا اس تکلیف سے کہیں زیادہ بڑا ہے جس سے تم ڈر رہے ہو۔

English Translation • انگریزی ترجمہ

“When you are afraid of something, dive straight into it, for the intensity of your apprehension is a greater evil than the thing you fear.”

Reflections: This is a powerful psychological strategy for overcoming anxiety. Imam Ali ؑ explains that procrastination and constant worry drain more energy than the actual task or challenge. By taking immediate action, the “phantom” of fear disappears, and the reality—which is often much more manageable—takes its place.
