Inference:

A brother requested that I elaborate on this quotation.

First we Muslims are told to aquire wisdom from anywhere. The fact that the Author is not a Muslim is immaterial as his words is full of wisdom.

All your actions, inactions and reactions should be righteousness. You do not harm or destroy people's lives just because of your selfish interest or ambition.

In Islam, the Machiavellian concept of "The end justified the means" is totally rejected. If the end is righteous then the means MUST be righteous.

Martyr Ayatollah Mutahari in his Book "Prophet Attitude and Conduct" expatiate on this. I will recommend this important Book to Friends. At the Zaria University, I read this Book so much that I almost memorized half of the Book then.

Prophet Muhammad (sa), Imam Ali (as), Sayyeda Fatima al-Zahra (as), Sayyeda Zainab (as) and all the Imams of AhlulBayt (as) are embodiments of righteousness. They never harmed anybody when discharging their mission and responsibilities.

Always remember these words of Dag Hammarskjold:

"He who wants to keep his garden tidy does not reserve a plot for weeds."
