١٠. وَقَالَ (عليه السلام): خَالِطُوا النَّاسَ مُخَالَطَةً إِنْ مِتُّمْ مَعَهَا بَكَوْا عَلَيْكُمْ وَإِنْ عِشْتُمْ حَنُّوا إِلَيْكُمْ.
10. Amīr al-mu’minīn, peace be upon him, said: Meet people in such a manner that if you die they should weep for you and if you live they should long for you. [1]

[1] To the person who behaves with others with benignity and mannerliness, people extend their hand of cooperation, they honour and respect him and shed tears after his death. Therefore, a person should lead such an agreeable life that no one should have any complaint against him, nor should any harm be caused by him to anyone so that during life he should attract others and after death too he should be remembered in good words.
