1528: The wise, pious and moral speeches of Imam Baqir (a.s): part four
In the name of Allah the Beneficent the Merciful
31- He (peace be upon him) said:
Almighty Allah Inspire to Prophet Musa (peace be upon him) and said: don’t be happy for abundant wealth and never leave my remembrance in any condition because abundant wealth makes one to be negligence of his sin and leaving my remembrance make the heart to be cruel.
32- He (peace be upon him) said: beware of assisting an oppressed Muslim as his supplication against you will be accepted, verily our father, the holy Prophet (peace be upon him and his progeny) use to say: the prayer of an oppressed Muslim is accepted.
33- He (peace be upon him) said:
Verily the followers of Imam Ali are: those that are mutual in our allegiance, those that love each other as they love us, those that exchange visits in order to give life to our affairs, those that never oppress when they were annoyed and they are not immoderate when they are in joy, those that are source of blessing to their neighbor and they are peaceful with those that are closer to them.
34- He (peace be upon him) said:
Verily this tongue is the key to good and evil, then it is better for a believer to seal his tongue as he seal his gold and silver.
35- He (peace be upon him):
The best worship is to be modest with your stomach and your private part. (Tuhfal Uqul, pg: 296)
36- On the authority of Jabir al-Ja’afi that Imam Baqir (peace be upon him) said:
O’ Jabir! Extend my (salaam) greeting to my followers and made them to understand that there is no relation between us and Allah the most High, and you are not closer to Him except through obedience to Him. O’ Jabir our friend is he who obeys Allah and love us; meanwhile loving us would not benefits he who disobey Allah. (Bihar al-Anwar, vol: 15, pg: 164).
37- He (peace be upon him) said:
Allah has not given anyone to leave any of the following three things: returning what is entrusted to you whether by a good or bad person; fulfilling your promise to whether a good or bad person and doing good to your parents whether they are good or bad. (Bihar al-Anwar vol: 74, pg: 56).
38- He (peace be upon him):
Good act prevents misfortune death and every good act is regarded as (Sadaqah) alms giving, those that do well in this world are the good ones in the last day and those that do bad in this world are the bad ones in the last day. The foremost to enter Paradise are those that act goodly and the foremost to enter Hellfire are those that act badly.
39- He (peace be upon him) said:
The utmost of affair, the key to everything and pleasure of Almighty Allah is to obey the Imam after acknowledging him but if a man prays throughout his night and fast during his entire days and gives all his wealth as alms and perform Pilgrimage throughout his life while he didn’t know whom to give allegiance to, so that his entire deeds would be through him, he don’t have any right of his reward and he would not be regarded as a faithful man.
40- He (peace be upon him) said:
When our riser rise Allah shall put His hand on the head of His entire servant, He will gather their senses with him and perfect their dreams with him.
