حق کی طاقت

📜
Original Arabic • متنِ عربی

مَا بَدَأْتُ بِهِ مِنَ الْحَقِّ فَلَا أَخَافُ عَلَيْهِ.

Urdu Translation • اردو ترجمہ

جس حق کی میں نے ابتدا کی ہے، اس کے بارے میں مجھے (کسی ناکامی کا) خوف نہیں ہے۔

English Translation • انگریزی ترجمہ

“As for the truth I have started with, I have no fear for it (fearing its defeat).”

Reflections: Imam Ali ؑ identifies the **Indestructibility of Truth**. He explains that when a cause or an action is rooted in Divine Truth ($Haqq$), it possesses an internal strength that shields it from ultimate failure. Even if it faces temporary setbacks or opposition, the truth does not need a defender to “fear” for its survival—it is the defender itself. This wisdom gives us the courage to start righteous projects without fearing the magnitude of the challenges ahead.
