Imam Ali (a.s.) said, ‘He who informs you of your faults will guard you in your absence, whereas he who flatters you with respect to your faults will point the finger at you in your absence.’[Ghurar al-Hikam, no. 8260, 8261]

Knowledge is better than Wealth
Imam Ali's advice to his companion Kumail :
O Kumail , knowledge is better than wealth ; for knowledge guards you , while you have to guard wealth ; and wealth is diminished when spent , while knowledge grows and increases when put in use .
O Kumail , dividend from wealth disappears with its loss ,
O Kumail , the hoarders of wealth have died , while the learned men exist for ever ; their bodies have disappeared but their teachings and wisdom are ingrained in the hearts .

Scientific and technological progress
Imam Sadiq (PBUH) says: “There are 27 letters for science and knowledge. The all knowledge that has been revealed till date through all the Prophets is only “two” of those letters. When our Qa’im (PBUH) rises, then Allah will reveal the remaining “25” letters of knowledge and will add to the existing two letters so all “27” letters become complete.” *1
Imam Mahdi (PBUH) like imam Ali (PBUH) says: “Ask me any question you have before I leave you because I am entirely science and knowledge.” *2
