عَنْ امِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عليه السلام: «يا كُمَيْلُ! ايّاكَ وَ الْمِراءَ فَانَّكَ تُغْرِي بِنَفْسِكَ السُّفَهاءَ اذا فَعَلْتَ وَ تُفْسِدُ الْاخاءَ» ..

The ill effects of discussions mixed with dispute andaggression are precisely studied in the above traditions and it is inferred from them that:

١- Dispute in discussion is useless, and it has no result( because hurting affections of the other party causes him toresist ).

٢- Dispute is not compatible with belief( because it is the signof arrogance and seeking excellence, and arrogance is nevercompatible with belief, the sense of which is submission andsurrender to the truth ).

٣- Dispute results in sedition and attracting enmity andhostility( because everyone is sensitive and strict for ruining ofhis personality ).
