Selected sayings of the Imam (a.s.) are reproduced below:
The person moving to
help his Momin brothers, is like the person who is walking between Safa and
Marwa.
The desire for the worldly
pleasures causes grief and sadness. Its abstinence brings rest of heart and
body.
A Muslim is one who
has knowledge about the religion, good management of life, perseverance facing calamity.
A true believer is
the one whose sexual appetite does not overcome him, and whose stomach does not
shame him.
Enjoining good and
forbidding evil should be practiced with a believer who may learn a lesson, or
an ignorant to learn
Allah should not see
you in situations against which He warned, miss you in situations of which He
ordered.
Asked about short
instruction that collects welfare of both worlds, he (a.s.) said: Never tell
untruths.
Debt is grief at
night and humility in day.
Treat your fathers
piously so that your sons treat you piously.
Salutation (Salaam)
is voluntary (Sunnah) while responding is obligatory (Wajib).
Do not answer those
who speak before they greet you.
Shake hands, because
this will confiscate malice.
As for those who
control themselves in rage, desire, fear and lust, Allah will prevent Hell from
burning their bodies.
He who recognizes
Allah accurately will fear Him. He who fears Allah accurately will disregard
the worldly pleasures.
We love those who are
intelligent, knowledgeable, perceptive, expert, clement, courteous, patient,
veracious and loyal.
The firmest handle of
faith is to love, hate, give and deprive – all for Allah’s sake.
You should not trust
the betrayer after you have tested him, and you should not accuse him whom you
have trusted.
Beware of associating
with the lowly, because the association with them will never lead to welfare.
Good mannerism is a
part of the religion. It increases the earnings.
The actual generous
charitable individual is the one who spends his wealth for fulfilling the
rights of Allah.
You should know that
I will fulfill the trust of even the killer of Imam Ali (a.s.) if he deposits
something with me or seeks advice of consultation.
A believer should
never have bad temper, bad humor, envy, obduracy, fabrication and oppression.
Daughters are
advantages and sons are graces. You will be rewarded for the advantages and
asked about the graces.
