In the Name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

Mola Ali (A.S.) declares: Listen and comprehend and believe and then do so! This is the value of human!

Imam Sadigh (A.S) declares: Glorious God set belief in seven different shares. Some gain one share, some gain two shares and some three. So you must not expect those who gain one or two or three shares, more than that:
1- Goodness with people.
2- Honesty in all affairs.
3- Belief in God and the day of Resurrection.
4- To agree with what God wants for him in all affairs.
5- To be the man of his word, with God and people.
6- Knowledge of religion and to comply with it.
7- Patience, that is to be patient for God's sake and people.
Now some comply with one, some with two and some with three shares.

Honored prophet (S.A) declares: There are four groups who cause people and the world to be alive and lasting. (When we say honored prophets "S.A" that is the essence of one hundred and twenty four thousand prophets "A.S".)
1- Those who learn Quran commandments and our tradition and comply with them and teach them to people.
2- Those who come and learn with modesty and hearty consent and comply with them.
3- Openhanded people who give charity with no expectation.
4- Those who stand for their religion and God to the last breath and become martyr.

There are four groups who always bother people and ruin their world and hereafter.
1- The irreligious jealous.
2- The dishonorable stingy because of whom all people's sorrow is.
3- The hypocrite feudist.
4- The selfish arrogant.

Holy prophet (S.A) declared:
O' God keep me safe from blindness after vision.
O' God keep me safe from damnation after guidance. Those who do these bad things do them after knowledge.
O' God keep me safe from friends and acquaintances that conceal my goodness and renown my badness.
Be aware that Islam is naked, its value, dress and grace is in Quran commandments and my tradition.

Monday 2010-03-08
Holy prophet (S.A) declares: Try to do any deed for God's sake, specially learning knowledge.
Those who learn knowledge for showing off will die ignorant.
Those who learn knowledge for telling the others and not for complying with it will die feudist.
Those who learn knowledge for arguing will die lecher.
Those who learn knowledge for increasing their wealth will die irreligious.
Those who learn knowledge for God's sake and comply with it will die knowing and godly and accept right calls and enter Heaven.

 Wednesday 2010-03-03

Honored prophet (S.A) declared: The things which take my people to Hell most are stomach, lust and libido.

I am terrified for my people of three things:
1- Going astray after guidance and knowledge.
2- Misleading seditions.
3- Lust, gluttony and craving luxury.

There is no worship better than purity of tongue and avoidance of lust.

 Monday 2010-03-01
 Glorious God inspired to the Holy prophet (S.A): O' Mohammad, Do you know when a believer becomes a perfect man? Hazrat (S.A) declared: No, but you know.
God declared: whenever seven characteristics are gathered in him:
1- Righteousness which prevents him from committing sin. That is to surrender oneself to God.
2- Silence which prevents him from talking nonsense.
3- Fear of God and attention to him, so that he sees God when he wants to commit a sin, and fears him.
4- Modesty so that he is shamed of God in solitude which prevents him from committing sin.
5- Contentment which makes him satisfied with one kind of meal or an ordinary dress.
6- To be enemy to the mortal world, for God is the mortal world's enemy.
7- To like believers and good people, for I as your God like them.

Wednesday 2010-02-24
Devil told some of the prophets such as Noah (A.S) and Moses (A.S): Be aware of the fact that I am present at serious moments:
For instance, I am there when you become angry. I tempt you until you are condemned to Hell.
I am there when you envy, I tempt you until you are condemned to Hell.
When a man and a woman (Who are Namahram to each other.) are together, I tempt them until they are condemned to Hell.
At the times of arrogance and pride I am there.
I am there when you attest, for not being able to judge well.

 Monday 2010-02-22
Hazrat Ali (A.S) declares: God condemns six groups in Hell on the day of resurrection:
1- Arabs for their bigotry; bigotry should be for God's sake.
2- The rich and the masters for their arrogance.
3- Lords and chives for oppressing and hurting people.
4- Jurists for their jealousy towards each other.
5- Tradesmen for their untruthfulness in their business.
6- The rural people for their ignorance and not willing to learn their religious commandments.
These are stupid and ignorant in this world and burning in Hell in the other.

  Wednesday 2010-02-17
Imam Sadigh (A.S) declares:
The statesmen should be just. The unjust statesmen are as fruitless as a cloud which doesn't rain.
The impatient poor are like a lamp with no light.
The scientist should be righteous. The unrighteous scientists are like a tree with no leaf.
The ungenerous rich are like a land with no plant.
The young should always repent. The young who don’t repent are like a stream with no water.
The value of a woman is in her modesty and hijab (covering herself before men) the immodest women are like a meal with no taste.

  Monday 2010-02-15
Hazrat Ali (A.S) declares: How nice it is to make friends for God's sake and in his path.
O' people, your children and your wealth are mortal world's cultivation, and good and holy deeds are total other world's cultivations. God has provided people with all these gifts. Good for those who enjoy both.
O' people, those who respect people because of their title, position or wealth, have lost one third of their religion.
O' people, those who read Quran and finally end up in Hell after death, are among those who have made fun of Quran in their lives.
O' Komeil, learn to be wise and avoid speaking nonsense to be religious.
O' Komeil, when God taught you your religion, it doesn't matter if you know anyone or anyone knows you. Just be happy that you have known your religion.

Wednesday 2010-02-10
Loqman told his son: dear son, everything has a sign, and there are four signs for a wise believer:
1- Learning moral and holy knowledge.
2- Hearty belief, that is to believe the holy commands by all heart.
3- Doing what God has ordered them by all means.
4- Saying prayers and fasting.
The first three signs are more important than saying prayers and fasting.

Mola Ali (A.S) declares: People are divided into three groups:
1- Holy scientists who learn knowledge for God's sake.
2- Students of the salvation path.
3- And the last group is like a mosquito drifting as the wind blows.

Monday 2010-02-08
Hazrat Ali (A.S) was asked: who is magnanimous and gentleman? He declared:
1- The one who accepts the right advice.
2- When you obey him, he repays, that is to repay you when you do him a favor.
3- When you object him, he treats back kindly. That is if you do something wrong to him or fall out with him, he reacts with kindness and compassion.
4- He calls back those who turn him away. If someone ignores him he doesn’t fall out.
5- He approaches those who turn him away, and he reconciles those who are hostile to each other.
6- He shows complete honesty to those who trust him. He doesn’t betray those who trust him.

Wednesday 2010-02-03
Hazrat Ali (A.S) declares: Experience is superior to knowledge; that is to learn good deeds from people.
Half of the faith is listening to advice; that is to accept the right advice openly. The other half of the faith is surrendering before glorious God.
Those who have led a bad life have done what they wanted. They have had bad days and they became remorseful and fell on the ground and could not stand again.

Imam Reza (A.S) was asked: How did you spent last night? He (A.S) replied: whilst God was observing me, the Hell was before my eyes and the angles were waiting for my deeds to write them down. They write all deeds either good or bad. I spent the night till morning whilst my life was running so quickly.

Monday 2010-02-01
All the pure Imams (A.S) declare: There are three things which result in happiness for everyone in the two worlds:
1- Religious manner and morality.
2- Kindness toward people for God's sake, in a way that God approves.
3- Forgiveness for God's sake.

There are three things which cause misery for people in the two worlds, especially New Year's Eve:
1- Jealousy which has made all people condemned to Hell.
2- To indulge in alluring things for this alluring world will debilitate him!
3- Emulation which deprives man of comfort.

May God save us from these three misdeeds.

Wednesday 2010-01-27
Honored prophet (S.A) declares: Bases of atheism are four things:
1- To have greed, that is to be discontented with one's own share.
2- Inappropriate fear, in other words, when you are in a ceremony and it's the prayers time and the others are backbiting and reveling, your fear from them prevents you to say your prayers. Or a man fears his wife and commits a sin for her sake or he does not tell her the right. And vice the versa! A woman fears her husband and commits a sin for his sake or she does not tell him the right.
3- Discontent with life, that is to aspire the mortal world and its trappings. The master declared: These days most of the people have 90 percent of what they need or want and they are not happy or thankful for them. Besides, they are sad for the 10 percent which they lack.
4- Improper anger, that is getting angry is proper and right only for God's sake. It is mentioned in a hadith that if an allowed matter becomes forbidden or a forbidden matter becomes allowed and you do not become angry like a shot tiger, you are not a true believer.

Monday 2010-01-25
Hazrat Ali (A.S) declares:
Half of knowledge is being aware of your own ignorance, the other half is asking with modesty in order to learn.
If you want to know how much you are wise, notice how much you like it when given some advice.
If you want to know how much you are ignorant, notice how much you dislike it when given some advice.
Even if someone tells you something wrong it's not wise of you to become sad.

Whenever you expect someone to do something good for you, you do it for him first. And whenever you want to do something bad to someone, do it to yourself first. So you will know how it tastes? For what you do to the others, will turn back to yourself. You will fall into the hole which you have dug for the others. You reap what you sow.

  Wednesday 2010-01-20
The fourth blest Imam (A.S) declares:
There is no greatness and nobility but in showing modesty and courtesy before people.
No one will be dear unless they be righteous and obedient before God.
No work will be valuable in this world but the one which is done with justice.
No one is servant and nor have they done servitude, unless they worship God.
And the wise who pray like the ignorant, break the heart of the holy prophet (A.S).
Beware that the worst enemy of God are those who follow the one who is not himself obedient to God and to the prophet (S.A).

The holy prophet (S.A) declared: After faith in God, there is nothing more wisely and worthy than making friends for God's sake and become enemy to some other people for God's sake.
The most suffered people are those who avoid committing sin.

  Monday 2010-01-18
Glorious God declares in the holy hadith: As I do not demand that you do your tomorrow's prayers, you also do not request from me your tomorrow's livelihood. If you be content with your share, you'll have a healthy heart and your body will be in peace and comfort, and you'll be honorable and admirable.
But if you be malcontent, I dominate the world upon you, so that you will run after anything you need like a gazelle in the wilderness and you achieve nothing but what I destine for you, just you will be strayed and blamed.

There are three consequences in craving the mortal world:
1- Endless difficulties and sorrows.
2- Desires that you will never achieve.
3- You will lose your hope to anything.

So try to be content in life to achieve your demands and be calm and successful in your life.

Wednesday 2010-01-13
Honored prophet (S.A) declares: Inmates of Hell have three characteristics:
1- Arrogance and egocentricity which is very bad.
2- Lying, in which all sins are integrated.
3- Immorality, that is any speech or act which is not approved by God.

And he declares again: There are three things which stabilize friendship:
1- To tell a friend's fault as a mirror. The mirror whispers your faults to you, neither less nor more. It doesn’t either betray or tell it to someone else. The mirror tells it for your beauty.
2- To conserve his reputation behind his back.
3- To help him with difficulties.

And be aware that the jealous do not rest at peace.

Monday 2010-01-11
Honored prophet (S.A) declares: God declares: I like three deeds and I give fine rewards for them:
1- Doing religious duties, that is to say the right either it might harm him or be profitable to him, either people like it or not.
2- Showing modesty before people and before the right advice.
3- Doing good deeds for people only for God's sake.

He furthermore (S.A) added: Stupidity has three characteristics:
1- Improper jokes and wrong humor.
2- Improper and taboo hobbies, such as backbiting, wrong accusing and palavering.
3- Anger and violence which is not for God's sake.

Wednesday 2010-01-06
Hazrat Ali (A.S) declares: Some die and make people happy, but, this is the beginning of their own misery! Some others die and reach happiness while bring sorrow to people.

O' people, show goodness until it becomes a trait; show goodness to become one of the good.
If a disaster comes to you, sacrifice your wealth for your life. If your religion is hurt, sacrifice your life for your religion. Be aware that one who loses his religion is perished.

And one is rubbed whose religion has been taken from. So as long as paradise exists, there will be no poverty, and as long as hell exists, there will be no wealth and might!

O' people, a servant of God has not tasted true faith in God; otherwise he would never lie, either for fun or seriously, either big or small.
O' people I have never seen someone more abject and oppressed than a jealous.

  Monday 2010-01-04
Imam Hassan Askari (A.S) declares: How bad it is when a Moslem desires something from inside which makes him abject.
O' people, there is no comfort and joy of life for the jealous nor is there bravery and conscience in the liar. For permanence of your honor be content with your solitude.

O' people, two things perish people in any zeitgeist:
1- Fear of poverty, that is they commit any crime for mortal world's sake and in order not to become poor.
2- Having pride and showing themselves off, that is they commit any sin to showing themselves off!

O' people, avoid loving mortal world for it is the cause of any sin or disastrous path and accompanies any sedition, and makes trouble. Those who are possessed by the mortal world will become abject.

O' people, any look that doesn’t teach a lesson is absurd. Any silence, in which there is no reflection, is ignorance. Any speech, in which there is no God recall, is useless.

Wednesday 2009-12-30
Hazrat Ali (A.S) declares: you need three things to become a perfect human:
1- To understand religion, from the holy Quran, the holy prophet (S.A) and his progeny (A.S).
2- To watch your tongue in all affairs.
3- To be aware of their zeitgeist and not to be deceived by

Furthermore Mola Ali (A.S) was asked:
7- Who is the most patient? He declared: Those who overcome their anger.
8- Who is the most determined? He declared: Those who are not deceived by flatterers and are consistent inside.
9- Who is the most foolish? He declared: Those who see the world being ruined and yet be deceived by it.
10- Who is the most remorseful? He declared: Those who are deprived of this world and the hereafter. It means that either they are poor and have not had a good life in this world or they have not worshipped God to benefit the hereafter.
11- Who is the blindest? He declared: those who are hypocrites in worshipping God and their deeds are not for His sake.
12- Who is the most content? He declared: Those who are content with what God has given to them.
13- Who is the biggest sinner? He declared: Those who commit sin in religion. It means they like mortal world and its desires.
14- Who is the dearest to God? He declared: Those who are practically waiting for the Master of zeitgeist (Imam Mahdi A.S the savoir).

Monday 2009-12-28

Hazrat Ali (A.S) declares: Three things are needed for perfection in religion:
1- To be advisable, that is to keep a piece of advice in mind.
2- Inner adviser, that is to advise oneself.
3- Divine help in success. No one will succeed in anything unless God makes him successful.

Mola Ali (A.S) was asked:
1- On which day are we stronger? He declared: On the day that you overcome your ego.
2- Which contempt is the worst? He declared: When your greed of the mortal world dominates you.
3- Which poverty is the most severe? He declared: When atheism and misdeeds dominate you.
4- Which friend is the worst? He declared: one who helps you with committing sin.
5- Which people are the worst? He declared: those who sell their religion for the sake of others' mortal world.
6- Which people are the cleverest? Those who recognize the right path and avoid the wrong one.

Wednesday 2009-12-23
Imam Kazem (A.S) declares: Dear son, always blame yourself in servitude and worship of God.

Imam Bagher (A.S) declares: O' Jaber, God does not free you from defect and delinquency. It means that God makes you succeed to feel that your worships are scanty and imperfect so that you will not exhibit pride.

Mola Ali (A.S) declares: Those who keep knocking a door will finally get that door opened. It means those who knock the door of God's house, God will submit their prayer.
Those who trouble themselves in improving their ego will gain bliss and happiness.

He further (A.S) declared: Those who prioritize their wisdom to their desire, their deeds and attempts will become always good and admirable.

Mola Ali (A.S) declares: Perfect happiness is attempting to improve one's society.
And he added: Never stop attempting to improve your ego! For nothing but your effort can lead you to God and humanity.

Monday 2009-12-21

Honored prophet (S.A) declares: An informer should be the subject of resentment and there is no honesty in his friendship. For there are nine ruinous characteristics in him:
1- He is a liar.
2- He backbites.
3- He is not a man of his word.
4- He is a traitor.
5- He is janus-faced. (hypocrisy, duplicity, blarney)
6- He is jealous.
7- He is disunites.
8- He is incentive and it is said in the Holy Quran: Being incentive is worse than homicide.
9- He is crafty and cunning.
An informer is someone who ruins relationships between people. Woe betide the censorious! Informer will not enter Heaven.

And he declared: Do I introduce you the worst people? Yes!... That is the informer!

Wednesday 2009-12-16
Hazrat Ali (A.S) declares: God made me the leader of his people and necessitated that I live like the poor in eating, drinking and clothing, so that they follow my poverty and are not unhappy with their own poverty and the rich do not rebel and revolt in their affluence.

Hazrat Ali (A.S) declared to Imam Hossein (A.S) in his advices: Those who show arrogance to people will become despicable and abject.
So many are the honored people who became abject by their bad temper, and so many are the worthless people that their good characteristics glorified them.
I advise you to be righteous and do not master others over yourself by committing sin and do not make yourself abject, for those who are enslaved by desires will become more despicable and abject than a slave.

Monday 2009-12-14
Hazrat Ali (A.S) declares:

O'you, who wants to be beautiful and nice and kind, there is no friend better than keeping your tongue.
There is no dress more beautiful than surrendering before God, the holy prophet (S.A) and his progeny's (A.S) tradition.
There is no wealth purer and more worthwhile than contentment; that contentment itself is wealth.
There is no benefaction better than kindness for God's sake.
There is no meal more delicious and greater than patience in the way of God's religion.

Holy prophet (A.S) declares:
In unison and fraternity be eternal like a comb's cohesive tines.
For stability in the way of your religion and your country be like masonary.
To lead and guide each other be like a mirror. A mirror reveals your uglyness and beauty in a gentle way, noting more and noting less. It reveals for yourself not for the others, and its aim is to conserve your honor.

Wednesday 2009-12-09
Because of the incoming New Year and people's preparation for the holidays, seven valuable sentences from the honored prophet (S.A) are offered as a gift to families in order to lessen the quarrels between them in these days:

Honored prophet (S.A) declares: there are three women who are safe from the grave torment and relived with Fatima Zahra (S.A) on the day of resurrection:
1- A woman who stands by his husband when he is impoverished, and helps him.
2- A woman who is not in accord with luxury, and who does not quarrel with her husband when he's not wealthy.
3- A woman who gives up her dowry to his husband for God's sake.

Then he (S.A) declared: people strive for four things:
1- They strive for wealth and opulence while it is found in contentedness, not in extravagance and being lavish.
2- People seek comfort in this world while it is found in a simple life not in excessive avarice.
3- People strive to diminish their sorrow. Sorrow is diminished through unburdening and moderate desire. If you do not get yourselves over-occupied or in debt, there will be no sorrow.
4- Some people seek honor, God declares: "Honor" belongs to God, the prophet (S.A) and true believers. Honor is in worship and servitude and it won't be gained in any other way.

Monday 2009-12-07
Hazrat Ali (A.S) was asked: "What is servitude?" He (A.S) replied: A believer servant has five characteristics:

1-He evacuates his heart from jealousy, enmity and hypocrisy, and he does not accept forbidden food or money and he is not flatterer and crafty.

2- He reads Quran and understands and complies with its commandments.

3-He is heedful toward his prayers. It means his prayers prevent him from committing sin.

4-He shows courtesy and modesty before God and the prophet (S.A) and his progeny (A.S). It means he surrenders before commandments of God and the prophet (S.A) and his progeny (A.S).

5-He moans day and night before God and asks God: "O' God direct me and don’t leave me by myself."

Wednesday 2009-12-02
 Imam Ali (A.S) declares:
A God's servant never makes a too long wish unless he forgets the other world and looses it.
Human is the most similar thing to a scale, for he is neglected with the smallest ignorance and he is valued with moral knowledge.

O' people, cursing a believer is sin and debauchery. Fighting with a believer is atheism. A believer's wealth is venerable like his blood.
O' people, a believer observes and he is counseled. When he keeps silent he muses and when he talks he recalls God's name. A believer gives alms when he becomes wealthy and when he is impoverished he waits patiently. A believer is content with God soon enough and hardly does he get angry with God. A believer is content with getting little and he does not become selfish and arrogant with gaining so much.

But a hypocrite:

He is too busy to observe. When he is silent he is in negligence. And when he speaks, he talks nonsense.

Monday 2009-11-30
Honored prophet (S.A) declares: when someone does not intentionally say his morning prayers, an angel addresses him: "O' loser!" If he doesn't say his midday prayers, the angel addresses him: "O' traitor! You have betrayed yourself." If he does not say his afternoon prayers an angel would label him: "O' irreligious!"
If he doesn't say his sunset prayer, an angel calls him: "O' heathen!" If he doesn't say his evening prayers, an angel tells him: "There is no hope to your goodness and usefulness anymore."

Then he (S.A) declared: God places five groups under his blessing shade in the day that all are harmed and upset:
1- Those who are heedful toward their prayers. It means their prayers prevent them from committing sin. And people who fast and are righteous.
2- Those who pay their khoms (One fifth of the income which is extra in an annual cycle.) and alms obligatory. Eye's khoms is not looking at forbidden things. Tongue's khoms is not to tell lies, and ear's khoms is not to listen to forbidden things.
3- Fighters who fight in God's path. That is the clerks who do not do well at work and those who do not use people's money for their personal use and do not misbehave or are not in accord with misdeeds!
4- They resort with relatives and friends for God's sake, make friends for God's sake and become angry for God's sake.
5- Those who perform an acceptable Hadj. That is to gain salvation. Imam Reza (A.S) was asked: What is an acceptable Hadj? He (A.S) replied: It is when someone gains salvation and has saved himself from committing sins.

Wednesday 2009-11-25
Imam Sadigh (A.S) declares:
How good it is when a believer has these ten characteristics:
1- Not to flatter or to be crafty.
2- To be noble in severities like having high positions and ranks.
3- To be patient and tolerant in disasters and difficulties.
4- Not to lose himself and his personality when is gifted galore. And to thank God by doing good deeds.
5- To be content with what God has given to him and does not do misdeeds for gaining earthy possessions.
6- Not to be cruel to his enemies, not to be in accord with their sins, and not to dishonor them.
7- Not to put his burden on his friends' shoulders.
8- Not to commit sin for his friends' sake.
9- To expose his body to difficulty and suffer for God's sake for improving his own personality and morality.
10- Not to cause people pain and harassment. And they be hopeful to his goodness towards them. 

Monday 2009-11-23

Mola Ali (A.S) was asked: what is servitude and who is God's servant? He (A.S) declared: He has five characteristics:
1- God's servant frees his heart from jealousy and enmity and hypocrisy and do not eat illegitimate food.
2- He reads Quran and understands and follows its commandments for God's sake.
3- He is heedful toward his prayers. It means his prayers prevent him from committing sin.
4- He heartily shows courtesy and modesty before God and prophet (S.A) and his progeny (A.S).
5- He moans day and night before God until He directs him.

When he became such a human he will live among five lights:
1- His arrival is light.
2- His departure is light.
3- His science is light, because he has taken it from God and the prophet (S.A).
4- His speech is light, because he has taken it from God and the prophet (S.A).
5- His entrance to the Day of Resurrection is light.

Wednesday 2009-11-18
Honored prophet (S.A) declares: Those who help poor people with their wealth and treat them with just, are real believers and true followers of Islam.

Mola Ali (A.S) declares: None of the people would abandon religious commandments for world's benefit, otherwise God torments them.
He continued: Poverty and destitution are the cause of religious defeat and antagonizing. So do not impoverish yourself by being lavish.

Mola Ali (A.S) declares: O' people, consider your good deeds little of worth although they might be very worthy, and always account your misdeeds big.

A man demanded: O' Ali (A.S) advise me. He (A.S) declared: I advise you to consider your good deeds scanty, however they might be big, but consider your misdeeds big although they might be little.

Monday 2009-11-16
Hazrat Ali (A.S) declares:
O' people, avoidance of committing sin is easier than repentance. God blesses those who struggle against their ego and rescue themselves from Hell in both worlds.
O' people there are signs for humanity and being religious:
1- Honesty in all affairs.
2- Trusteeship in all situations.
3- To be a man of your word. When you give your word to someone you should keep it.
4- To resort with people who do not destroy your religion.
5- To have mercy towards incapables.
6- To rarely talk to women except for when it is about the right path and theology.
7- To be good tempered to the point that does not cause straying from God's path.
8- Generosity to all people.
9- Complete patience.
10- To follow knowledge of religion.
11- Try to approach yourselves to God by following Quran's commandments and the holy prophet's (S.A) tradition.

Wednesday 2009-11-11
Honored prophet (S.A) asked Gabriel: What is the reward for the good deeds and the charity people do. Gabriel replied:
1- Your charity and pardon to a healthy person has a reward of 70 times for you.
2- If you give that charity to a handicapped or the ill it has a reward of 700 times.
3- If you give that to your parents it has a reward of 70000 times.
4- But if you give that in the path of divine and religion knowledge it has a reward of 100000 times.
So be aware of your good deeds' value.

Holy prophet (S.A) declared: your grave calls you five times a day:
1- I am the house of solitude, so bring a comrade with you.
2- I am the place of worms and serpents, so bring something that can rescue you.
3- I am the house of darkness, so bring a light with your good deeds.
4- I am the house of soil, so bring a carpet with you.
5- I am the house of poverty and misery, so bring a treasure with you.
So do not be indifferent as long as you live in this world, because we have these difficulties after death.

Monday 2009-11-09
Honored prophet (S.A) declares:
1- A life which is not spent in acquiring divine knowledge is wasted. It means all deeds should be for God's sake.
2- Knowledge which is not used for good is void.
3- A deed which is not sincere and for God's sake is gone with the wind.
4- Sincerity which is not protected with perseverance is wasted.
5- Perseverance which is not ended up in good is destroyed, because deeds are to be ended up in good.
Imam Sadigh (A.S) was asked: In what way is this world a comfortable place? He (A.S) declared: It's in abandoning our ego. He (A.S) was asked: In what way is the other world comfortable? He (A.S) declared: It's a place of comfort when you find yourself in Heaven.

Blest Imam Ali (A.S) declares:
O' people, avoiding sins is easier than repenting. There are so many people who after an hour spent with joy and liberty and being far from religion have a very long sadness and sorrow a head.
O' people death is the scandal of mortal world, for what you desired will be destroyed, and what you achieved illegitimately will destroy by the other's hands. So this doom has left no joy for any mortal world's lover or sapient.
O' people, moral science prevents concupiscence and its' indocility.
O' people, those people who become sad of unreasonable sayings about them are not wise. And those people who believe an ignorant's comment are not wise either.

Wednesday 2009-09-23
Blest Imam Ali (A.S) declares: listen and comprehend and believe then do it, to gain salvation.

O' people, a believer does not flatter.
O' people, a believer is not jealous.
O' people, a believer does not lie and does not talk unjustifiably.
O' people, a believer does not cause dispute between people.

3- Those who do useless works.
4- Those who argue about religion without knowledge. (It means that they don’t know religion well and they argue about it.)
5- Those who complain with no pain and annoy others.
6- Those who are depressed while no disaster has happened to them! (As our master declares: Those who remember God's name have no depression.)

Base of all sins and atheism are four things:
1- To be infatuated with the mortal world. That is to try to achieve what one desires regardless of how it is gained!
2- To be scared of giving others advice in order to do good deeds and avoid misdeeds.
3- Enmity, that is to feel rancor against people. Every night one should think deeply and forget all enmities and annoyances for God's sake. And he should declare to God: O' God I forgave him for your sake.
4- To rage at people. It means that one becomes angry with people unreasonably.
Then our master continued: There are deeds or characteristics which are more important than praying and fasting and if we don't quit them, they will destroy our good deeds: It is necessary for us to quit:

3- Those who expect generosity from their enemies. (It means he is aware of that person's enmity, and he expects openhandedness.)
4- Those who ask for grandness from unprincipled and stingy people. (It means that some people are essentially immoral and stingy but he expects them to help him.)
5- Those who interfere people's private conversations.
6- Those who insult nobles and elders.
7- Those who participate in inappropriate gatherings.
8- Those who speak to someone who doesn't listen to them.

There is no good in fasting without avoiding rant! It means human's tongue should be in control.
There is no good in reading Quran without musing and understanding the meaning!
There is no good in wealth without generosity! It means wealth should be gained legitimately and its owner should be generous and spend it for God's sake.
There is no good in solitude without avoiding sins! That is to avoid doing a sin in aloneness while you can do it.
Non-lasting gift and insincere pray are worthless.
There is no good in glorifying God (That is to say: Praise be to God! Thank God!) without right deeds!

Wednesday 2009-09-02
Our honored prophet (S.A) declares:
Then it will come to my people that they forget five things before five things:
1- They go after mortal world (In order to gain wealth and power). They try to establish better situation in this mortal world and they lose hereafter.
2- They become interested in wealth but they are not aware of its affairs. For wealth should be gained in a legitimate way, and should be spent just enough and carefully.
3- Make love and affection with women and lose heaven and houris (virgins of paradise) with big eyes. Our master explained: There are two types of bad women: one type are those who are unwell and nasty that their company causes the loss of Heaven. The second type are wives who are indifferent in their husbands misdeeds and they consult them regardless of God's commandments.
4- They show interest in the mortal world, palaces and big houses but they forget their grave and its darkness.
5- They love themselves, sacrifice everything for themselves and forget God. They always disobey God for themselves and their own desires.

- O' people, to ask good questions is half of knowledge and wisdom.
- Try not to increase your sorrow, because sorrow is half of oldness. (That the most people are suffering from it.)

5- I put sublimity and majesty in modesty, but people search for it in arrogance and selfishness.
6- I put compliance of prayers in pure stomach, pure meal and pure tongue, but people search for it in chaos and lies.

Our honored prophet (A.S) declares: when I went to Ascension (Me'raj of the holy prophet Muhammad peace and blessing be upon him and his progeny.), I saw that it was written on the first door of Hell: God's curse upon the liars, God's curse upon the miserly, God's curse upon the brutes, for these are the greatest sins, even if one of them be among us.
It was written on the second door of Hell: those who are hopeful to God would catch bliss at heart. Those who fear God would be safe. Proud is the one who is hopeful to the others instead of God, and fears the others rather than God.
It was written on the third door of Hell: those who do not want to be naked on the day of resurrection, have to clothe other people's body in this world. Those who do not want to be thirsty on the day of resurrection, should water thirsty people and those who do not want to be hungry on that day, feed hungry people.

Emam Reza (A.S) declares: there are three characteristics that if one lacks them, there will be no sign of humanity and honor in him:
1- Divine character: God does not tell his secrets to anybody and does not reveal people's secrets. So be careful not to talk behind anyone's back. Even some say they are talking about one's characteristic. If you have seen his deed with your own eyes and talk about it, it would be backbiting, if you have not seen it and mention it, it would be accusation.

2- Prophecy character: prophets (A.S) associate with people, live with them, tell them to do the right thing and not to do misdeeds, smile at them, but they are not like them. It means that they don’t get the color of their misdeeds, but they try to teach them divine knowledge and wisdom.

3- The twelve innocent Emams' (A.S) character: patience in adversities, that is in hardships and life violence we should save ourselves using patience, prayer and worship. We should not feel weak quickly and give up on our divine path.

Monday 2009-06-08
Our honored prophet (S.A) declares: Worshipers are three divided into three groups:
1- Some of them worship being scared of Hell. This is the worship of slaves and bondsmen.
2- Some of them worship in greed of earning premium. This is the worship of businessmen.
3- And some worship God truly. This is the right deed and their worship is the worship of nobles.

Hazrat (S.A) asked some people: "Who are you?" They replied: "We are the believers." He (S.A) asked: "What are your characteristics?" They replied:
1- In disasters we are patient and tolerant.
2- In welfare and comfort we are grateful.
3- And we admit God's destiny.
Hazrat (S.A) said: I swear to God that you are the believers.

Then, the holy prophet (A.S) declared: There are three benefits in belief:
1- Those who have belief, make friends in God's path and for God's sake.
2- They become enemies for God's sake.
3- At the time of doing sin they are ashamed of God. (So they do not do it.)

Wednesday 2009-06-03
Hazrat Ali (A.S) declares: I swear an oath to God who split the seed, if you learned knowledge and wisdom from the right source, and if you drank pleasant water safe, and stored goodness and excellence from the right place, and followed the path on its bright side and walked on the right path, the paths would become shiny, the signs would become visible to you and Islam would shine for you, and you would live peacefully with joy. Your wife and children wouldn't be in adversity and no Moslem would be oppressed. But you went through the dark path and opened the misdeed doors to yourselves. The world with all its goodness and generosity became dark to you, and the doors of knowledge and wisdom closed against you. So you said what you wished, and contradicted in God's religion. You arbitrated in God's religion ignorantly and followed misled people and they misled you. And you abandoned your Imams and so did they. So you became wretch, because you did what you desired!

Monday 2009-06-01
Hazrat Ali (A.S) declares: The world is the home for truthfulness for those who consider it in a truthful and friendly way.
The world is the home for health and safety for those who know where and under whose supervision he lives, that is glorious God.
The world is the place of wealth, for those who pack their luggage for their hereafter.
The world is the home for prayers of God's friends, and worship place for angles and the place of God's oracle for the one who is knowledgeable.
There is nothing better than the world, where is the trade market of God's fans that they earn the mercy of God in it.
Thus, those who knew God and became knowledgeable would pack the most precious luggage for this world and hereafter.

Wednesday 2009-05-20
Imam Javad (A.S) declares: Those who obey their desires have made their enemy's dreams come true, because there is no enemy to us stronger than our desire.

Hazrat Ali (A.S) declares: O Malek, you have an opportunity now, which is followed by death and together with it there is a wish which is an obstacle to your hereafter's path. Seize this opportunity. Rush towards death and put aside your desires and mind your hereafter deeds. You think that you can escape death, and there is a shelter to keep you from death!? How long are you going to lie? Make God's commands your mottoes and obey God with a pure heart, so that you achieve the best life and salvation will be opened to you. Consider this world as you are a passenger!

Monday 2009-05-20
Our honored prophet (S.A.) declares: A wise believer has four characteristics:
1- He is very truthful. Truthfulness differs from naiveness. Naive means fool and ignorant. Truthful means wise and sage and brave.
2- He considers praying and fasting of great importance.
3- He is very charitable. He is the man of forgiveness and alms giving.
4- He admits censures and advices.
Unlike believers, a feudist has four opposite characteristics:
1- His appearance contradicts his real interior personality.
2- He does not keep his promise.
3- He tells numerous lies in his life.
4- And worst of all, he does not admit censures and advices.

Wednesday 2009-05-20
Our honored prophet (S.A) declares: Those who want to be wise and knowledgeable of their time, should do five things:
1- To associate only with those who help him to improve his religion and moralities and to choose a friend who is righteous and healthy.
2- To Control his tongue and lust. Those things which deviate us far from the right path and God are called lust.
3- To believe that big world's disasters are punishments to his sins; because we are not grateful as long as we are healthy. And when it comes to adversities we demand: "Why me? Why did it happen?" and ingratitude is commenced. These are all disbelief.
4- Not to fill his stomach with halal* foods (foods which are bought with right and legal money which all rights of it has been paid.) in order not to led to haram*. Try not to get used to eating and talking much, although it might be halal* because he get used to it and is led to haram*.
5- To consider people prosperous while considering himself gone astray.

Those who want to be blessed should be content with what God wants them for.
Those who seek comfort in life should observe his inferiors, because a man will never be satisfied with his life as long as he follows his superiors.

*Halal in Islam is what's approved by God, And haram is what He has forbidden.

Monday 2009-05-18
Our honored prophet (A.S) declares:
It was written on the eighth door of the Heaven that all comforts are gained by doing four things:
1- To give alms. Donating money is only one facet of almsgiving; it includes any kind of help to the others. By getting up in morning, ask God to help you not to bother people.
2- Generosity with no indebtedness. What you do must be for God's sake.
3- Good temper with God's satisfaction. Good temper without God's satisfaction is accompanied with sin.
4- Not to bother people.
It was written on the first door of the Hell:
1- God's curse upon the liars.
2- God's curse upon the miserly.
3- God's curse upon the brutes.

- Righteous is beautiful for everyone but it is more beautiful for educated people.
- Generosity is good for everyone and it is better for wealthy people.
- Repentance is proper for everyone and it is more proper for the youth.

- Unrighteous scientist is like a tree which has no leaf!
- Ungenerous wealthy is like a ground with no plant and full of thorn!
- Impolite youth is like a stream which has not water.
- And worse of all: indecent woman is like a food with no taste.

Our honored prophet (S.A) declares: When I went to Ascension (Meraj of the holy prophet Muhammad peace and blessing be upon him and his progeny.) I saw after "Shahadatein" (To admit that Allah is the only god and Muhammad (S.A) is his prophet.) it was written on the first door:
There is always a way to do anything and there are four ways to enjoy life:
1- Not to envy; beware that jealousy destroys both worlds.
2- To be contented; those who are not content, have no peace in the two worlds. To be in peace, man should always observe his inferiors (in wealth)
3- To avoid enmity;
4- Company with wise people, who have perception and knowledge of religion.

Monday 2009-04-28
There are five tasks which destroy people's both worlds: (This world and the world after death.)
1- Not fearing God. Someone who doesn't fear God will do whatever he desires!
2- Not watching the mouth which destroys all good deeds.
3- Those who do not care about the Day of Resurrection, and forget it, so that they do not avoid of doing wrong and spoil their both worlds.
4- Those who seek hope in others but not in God. So they are not satisfied with God and they are offended by people! They are attached to other people, and since they don't fulfill their desire, make them irritated!
5- Those who do not care about their deeds and speech, so that their deeds and worships become hypocritical and hypocrisy is not accepted!

Moreover the master declares: Some people ask: "what do we do so that our deeds will be for God's sake?"
1- The things you do need to be according to what God has ordered and the holy prophet's (S.A.) traditions.
2- Not be offended by people's criticism, and not become happy if they praise!
These are the characteristics of those whose works are for God's sake.

Wednesday 2009-04-23
Imam Sadegh (A.S.) declares:
How odd it is that someone knows God and does not obey him!
How odd it is that someone has hope in God rewards, and does not do good deeds!
How odd it is that someone fears God's punishment and is not righteous!
How odd it is that someone is aware of the honor of knowledge and consents to be ignorant!
How odd it is that someone tries his best in this world although he knows he must depart it!
How odd it is that someone forgets and loses the other world although he knows he will go there someday!
How odd it is that someone runs after his whims and is not aware of death.

Monday 2009-04-21
 Imam Kazem (A.S.) declares: Those who have seven qualifications, their belief is complete and heaven may open doors to them:
1- To perform Ablution well, it means to clean their hands carefully if they are contaminated by oil or color. Performing a nice Ablution is not to wasting water!
2- To say prayers properly, first to be alert while praying, second the money which the clothes he prays in are bought with, be lawful (Halal).
3- To pay Khoms (1/5 of Savings) and Zakat*.
4- To avoid anger, it means to remember God's scourge (anger).
5- To keep the tongue from not telling the right and backbiting.
6- To learn religion from Quran, the prophet and ahlalbayt (A.S.) traditions.
7- To be kind to the holy prophet (S.A.) and ahlalbayt (A.S.), that is not to do deeds which embarrass them but to do things which make them glad.

*Zakat means grow (in goodness) or 'increase', 'purifying' or 'making pure'. So the act of giving zakat means purifying one's wealth to gain Allah's blessing to make it grow in goodness.

Wednesday 2009-04-16
The wisest and most humane people are those who schedule their life affairs according to Quran and holy prophet's tradition, and improve their selves to be prepared for the day of Resurrection.
And the most miserable people are those who sell their religion to people's earthly matters! And the best people are those who tell the truth (right) however it harms them, and do the right thing, and judge right.
How bad it is that a joy fades and its pain remains, and how nice and graceful it is that pain disappears and its joy stays on.

There are four things which are more necessary than anything else for parents:
1- Man and wife should try to speak politely, kindly, and nicely to each other in their life.
2- When the baby is born, they should call him good a good name. Call him Mohammad, Ali, Hassan or Hossein if the baby was a boy. And call her Fatima, Zahra, Zohreh, Tayebe, Tahereh or Zeinab if the baby was a girl.
3- Train him in exposure to Quran and Islamic tradition, so when he grows up he will know what God has ordered him in the holy Quran.
4- Find him (if he is a boy) a gentle, decent, and religious wife. And, find her (if she is a girl) a gentle, decent and religious husband.
The curse of God and the prophet (P.B.U.H) will strike parents if they don’t do their best in these four matters. And if their children curse them, it leads them to an unlucky destiny as many parents are in trouble by this case nowadays.

Wednesday 2009-04-09
God said to the holy prophet (A.S): My Vassals are proud of five things:
1- Tell those who are proud of beauty that Quran announces them that their faces will burn in fire and become ugly!
2- And tell those who are proud of their wealth and children that there will be a day when your wealth and children will not be beneficial, while good deeds will!
3- Tell those who are proud of authority, might and money that hell guards are rough and mighty and just obey God.
4- Tell those who are proud of their relations and parentage, that on the Day of Resurrection there is no relationship between you, but God's satisfaction.
5- Tell those who are proud of kingdom and presidency, that on the Day of Resurrection kingdom belongs to God, and you are miserable in both worlds! Honor belongs to God, the holy prophet (A.S) and believers.

Monday 2009-04-07
A man requested from the holy prophet (p.b.u.h): "Teach me something so that God and his Vassals will like me, I will be healthy, and I will be wealthy, and I'll be associated with you on the Day of Resurrection!

The holy Prophet (p.b.u.h) answered:
- If you want God to like you, fear him while committing a sin and be righteous. (it means to do good deeds, not to do bad deeds!)
- If you want to be dear to the others, don't covet them, and do not hurt them.
- If you want to increase your wealth, be charitable.
- If you want health, fast a lot. (it means not to do usury!)
- If you want to live long, behave others in God's path. (it means to do as God approves!)
- If you want to associate with me on the Day of Resurrection, always surrender yourself to the glorious God!

Wednesday 2009-03-30
Luqmaan said to his son: Son! Beware that tomorrow when you will stand before god, you will be interrogated of four things:
1- How (In which path) did you spend your youth?
2- How (In which deed) did you spend your life?
3- How did you make money?
4- How did you spend your money?
Be ready to answer these questions, son!

The Prophet (p.b.u.h) declares (the same thing!): The entire human value lies on four things:
1- Righteousness in God's path.
2- Modesty as God orders.
3- Being thankful to God.
4- Patience in God's path.

monday 2009-03-30

Holy Prophet (pbuh) declares: Four things have made people wretch in this world and hereafter:
1- Hard and sick hearts. When man sins over and over and does not repent, his heart becomes hard which is worse than any sickness.
2- Eyes which do not cry. It means he sees good deeds and envies and becomes sad instead of believing them.
3- Greed in any affair. Only in one condition greed is honorable, when it is for Worship, but in a way which does not hurt him.
4- Persisting in redoing sins. Those who persist in redoing sins, their hearts are always dark and sick.
In the Holy Quran, Surah Al-Maede Ayah 61, God states: When they come to you believers, they say, "We believe," while they were full of disbelief when they entered, and they are full of disbelief when they leave…

Imam Ali (A.S.) declares: Those who learn a lesson from ancient people, will gain foresight. Those who have gained foresight will comprehend. And those who comprehend will become wise. Comprehend the religion and so you will not be deceived.

The most gracious of you to yourselves are the most obedient to God. It means someone who obeys God, has commiserated himself. And the most treacherous of you to yourselves is the most disobedient to God.
Those who obey God will be safe and gain reward. And those who disobey God will become disappointed and regretful.

Devil says to his children: we have to perform three tasks and after that we can rest… and Human will never behold the paradise at all:
1- We try to make them belive that their good deeds are great!
2- We try to make them to forget their sins.
3- And at last… We try to make them arrogant.

Our prophet (p.b.u.h) says base of real belief are 4 things:

1-Knowing God that is Qur`ãn and it's commands and prophet and his tradition.

2-Acknowleging God's gift that is to know we were nothing, by his power we are perfect and good looking human.

3-Knowledge of the commands of God's religion that is going and learninng God's orders.

4-Knowing things that force out a person from religion and humanity.

Lets go through some parts of Master  Sheikh Aliakbar Tehrani`s Lecture:

 Imam Bagher was questioned: that our Creator Nurthrer says: not insist on what they did. Master said: they fall into error but not repent , fall into error but not regret, this is insisting on sin, some time, some day may God forbid you make 10 sins, 5 sins ,but regret afterwards,  retract and God forgives you. You observe them sin but not mind.they think they must do it . they think they must backbite.They must disgrace someone.They must accuse,and not mind again.This means insist on sin.

Emam Reza was questioned, What is The limit of trust, Imam Reza said: That is don`t fear of any thing because of God`s presence, don`t be seared when God is Present.
