Interesting happenings and thought provoking articles *"The world is a dangerous place, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who look on and do nothing"* Albert Einstein
40 Hadith of Imam Hussain (a)
1 – How can a thing the existence of which is dependent on you be taken as a proof for your existence?
Is there anything more evident than your “self “disclose you?
Are you hidden to need a guide to find you? Surely you are not.
Are you far-away to need your footprints to find you? Surely you are not!
Blind may the eyes be which do not see you watching and guarding your ”
self ”
(Arafa prayer ; Biharol Anwar , Vol . 98 , P. 226)
2 – He who has you , has everything , and he who has deprived himself of you is the poorest in the world.
Loser is the one who chooses and be content with anyone or anything other than you.
(Biharol Anwar , Vol . 98 , P . 228)
3 – Never will be salvaged the people who win the consent of the creature at the cost of the dissatisfaction of the creator.
(Maktal Khawarazmi , Vol . 1 , P . 239)
4 – No one will feel secured on the Resurrection Day except those who feared God in this world .
(Biharol Anwar , Vol . 44 , P . 192)
5 – The Almighty God said :
” The believing men and the believing women , they are guardians of each other , enjoin good and forbid evil … ”
God attaches primary importance to enjoining good and forbidding evil ” as a duty for men and women . For he knows that if it were fulfilled all the other duties , easy or hard , will be accomplished . That is because “enjoining good and forbidding evil” is a call for Islam, it regains the rights of the oppressed and opposes tyrants. (Tohafol Okool , P . 237)
6 – O’ people, the Messenger of God said: Whoever sees an aggressive tyrant legalizes the forbiddens of God , breeches divine laws , opposes the tradition of the Prophet , oppresses the worshippers of God , but does not concede his opposition to God in word or in deed , surely Allah will place that tyrant ( in the Hell ) where he deserves. (Maktal Khawarazmi , Vol . 1 , P . 234)
7 –
People are slaves to the world, and as long as they live favorable and comfortable lives, they are loyal to religious principles. However, at hard times, the times of trials, true religious people are scarce .
(Biharol Anwar , Vol . 78 , P . 117)
8 – One who pursues a goal through sinful ways, will ironically distance himself from that goal , and will approach what he was afraid of .
(Biharol Anwar , Vol . 78 , P . 120)
9 – Don’t you see that the right is not conveyed and the wrong is not prohibited. Let believers wish to die and righteously meet their God.
(Biharol Anwar , Vol . 78 , P . 117)
10 – To me, death is nothing but happiness, and living under tyrants nothing but living in a hell. (Tohafol Okool , P . 245)
11 – Your difficulties are worse than others, because you were deprived of the rank of the scholars – considering your legitimacy and merit – (These difficulties are) because administering the affairs of the society and conveying the ( religious ) rules must be done by scholars who truly believe in God and know what is permitted and what is forbidden by God . But you were deprived from this position and rank for you withdrew from (supporting) the truth. You changed the tradition of the prophet, despite the clear and disclosed proofs. If you had withstood and were patient against the torture and annoyance (of the tyrants) for the sake of God, then the divine affairs would have stayed in your hands , and you were the ones to whom would be referred.
But you made the tyrants dominant on you and left the divine affairs in their hands, while they shamelessly do the forbidden and notoriously live a licentious life. Your (fear) from death and attachment to this world have encouraged the tyrants to establish dominance over you. (Tohafol Okool , P . 238)
12 – O’ God! Surely you know that whatever we did was not a competition to gain worldly positions and not for the worthless physical attractions of the world. But to show the signs of religious ways and to remove corruption from your lands, so that the oppressed feel secured and act according to your traditions and rules.
(Tohafol Okool , P . 239)
13 – I never revolted in vain , as a rebel or as a tyrant , but I rose seeking reformation for the nation of my grandfather Mohammad . I intend to enjoin good and forbid evil , to act according to the traditions of my grandfather, and my father Ali Ibn Abi-Talib .
(Biharol Anwar , Vol . 44 , P . 329)
14 – If the world is counted valuable ; surely the house of God’s rewards is higher and more worthy.
If bodies were created for death; surely being killed with swords in the way of God is a more honorable death.
If the share of daily sustenance, of each creature is provided by the creator, surely it is not descent for man to be greedy for gaining and eating too much. If wealth is amassed for one day to be left, then why a free man becomes so miser on something he has to leave.
(Biharol Anwar , Vol . 44 , P . 374)
15 – If you don’t believe in any religion and don’t fear the Resurrection Day, at least be free in this world.
(Biharol Anwar , Vol . 45 , P . 51)
16 – Those who worship God for the hope of gaining , they’re not real worshippers, they’re merchants. Those who worship God out of fear (of punishment), they’re slaves .
And those who worship God to be grateful towards their creator , they are the free pople , and their worship is a real one.
(Biharol Anwar , Vol . 78 , P . 117)
17 – Beware that the need of people to you is among the blessings of God to you . So do not scare away the needy people when they come to you, as the God’s blessings will return and go elsewhere.
(Biharol Anwar , Vol . 78 , P . 121)
18 – O’ people take a lesson from the advice that God gave to His true believers, among which reproaching the Jewish scholars where he said: “Why do Jewish scholars not prohibit their people from saying sinful words?” and also ( the Almighty ) said : “Those who turned into atheists, from among the descendants of Israel, were cursed ” … his Almighty added: “certainly evil was that which they did.”
Surely the God criticized them for they turned a blind eye to what they saw of evil and corruption from the tyrants of their time out of greed or fear .
The Almighty God says : ” Do not fear people , rather, fear Me !”
The Almighty said : ” The believing men and the believing women , they are guardians of each other ; they enjoin good and forbid evil.” (Tohafol okool , P . 237)
19 – Whoever seeks the satisfaction of people through disobedience of God; Then God subjects him to people. (Biharol Anwar , Vol . 78 , P . 126)
20 – Avoid oppressing the one who does not have any supporter against you, other than the Almighty God. (Biharol Anwar , Vol . 78 , P . 118)
21 – One who reveals your faults to you like a mirror is your true friend, and one who flatters you and covers up your faults is your enemy. (Biharol Anwar , Vol . 78 , P . 128)
22 – Wisdom will not be complete except by following the truth . (Biharol Anwar , Vol . 78 , P . 127)
23 – Associating with corrupt people makes you subject to suspicion . (Biharol Anwar , Vol . 78 , P . 122)
24 – Crying out of fear from God is salvation from the hellfire. (Mostadrakol Wasael , Vol . 11 , P . 245)
25 – A man came to Imam Hussein ( Master of the martyrs ) and said : I am a sinful man and can’t avoid doing sin , please advise me . Imam(PBUH) said : If you can do these five things , then commit sin as much you like . First of all : don’t eat the sustinance of God and commit sin as much you like . Second : go beyond the domain of God and commit sin as much you like . Third : seek a site where God can not observe you and commit sin as much you like . Fourth: if the Anged of death comes to you to take away your soul, expel him away from yourself and commit sin as much you like . Fifth : If the Angel of Hell was about to throw you into the hell-fire , stop him and commit sin as much you like. (Biharol Anwar , Vol . 78 , P . 126)
26 – Avoid doing what makes you obliged to apologize for it . True believers never do anything for which they have to apologize. Fake believers , on the contrary , keep doing wrong and say they are sorry in the after math. (Tohafol Okool , P . 248)
27 – Hastiness is foolishness.
(Biharol Anwar , Vol . 78 , P . 122)
28 – Do not permit anybody ( to come in ) before saying Salam ( greetings ). (Biharol Anwar , Vol . 78 , P . 117)
29 – Among the signs of ignorance is arguing with irrational people . (Biharol Anwar , Vol . 78 , P . 119)
30 – Among the signs of a learned man is criticising his own words and being informed of various viewpoints . (Biharol Anwar , Vol . 78 , P . 119)
31 – Imam Hosein(PBUH) was asked : O ‘the son of the prophet how is life going on ? Imam replied : Life is going on , in such a way that I have a God over me , the hell-fire in front of me , death is looking for me , there is no escape of the Day of Judgement , I am taken as a hostage by my own deeds, things do not turn out to be the way I like , I cannot repel what I hate , the affairs are in someone else’s hands . He tortures me if he likes and he forgives if he wishes . Therefore,is there anybody poorer than me ? (Biharol Anwar , Vol . 78 , P . 116)
32 – Whoever becomes generous becomes a noble ; and whoever becomes stingy becomes vicions and mean-spirited (Biharol Anwar , Vol . 78 , P . 121)
33 – The most generous person is the one who offers help to those who do not expect him to help. (Biharol Anwar , Vol . 78 , P . 121)
34 – Whoever sorts out a problem of a believer, God sorts out his difficulties of this world and the here-after. (Biharol Anwar , Vol . 78 , P . 122)
35 – If you heard a person discredits the dignity and the honour of people, then try not to get introduced to him. (Balagatol Hussein ( A.S. ) , P . 284)
36 – Never raise your need except to three ( kinds of people ): to a relegious, to a braveman or to a nobleman. (Biharol Anwar , Vol . 78 , P . 118)
37 – Seventy rewards are for Salam ( Islamic greeting ) ; sixty nine for the starter and one for the one who replys . (Biharol Anwar , Vol . 78 , P . 120)
38 – Act like the one who believes in punishment for sin and reward for good deeds. (Biharol Anwar , Vol . 78 , P . 127)
39 – Should poverty , illness , and death not exist , man would not bow to anything (Nozhatol Nadher wa Tanbeehel Al – Khatir , P . 80)
40 – You deserve the Paradise , don’t sell yourself for anything less . Whoever is content to the wordly pleasures , has sufficed to something base and low. (Balagatol Hussein ( A.S. ) , P . 308)

O my Allah, the honour of being Your servant is sufficient.
I am proud of the fact that You are my Lord.
You are just as I want, so make me just as You like me to be.
الهي كفى بي عزّا أن أكون لك عبدا ، وكفى بي فخرا أن تكون لي ربّا
... أنت كما أُحبُّ ، فاجعلني كما تحبُّ
................................
O Allah, bless Muhammad and the family of Muhammad.
O Allah, be, for Your representative, the Hujjat (proof), son of AlHasan, Your blessings be on him and his forefathers, in this hour and in every hour, a guardian, a protector, a leader, a helper, a proof, and an eye. until You make him live on the earth, in obedience (to You), and cause him to live in it for a long time
-Dua Al faraj

*"The world is a dangerous place, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who look on and do nothing"*
Albert Einstein
..................................
“I am only one, but I am one. I cannot do everything, but I can do something. And because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do the something that I can do. What I can do, I should do. And what I should do, by the Grace of God, I will do.”
— Edward Everett Hale
-------------------------
I should not react in life... I should always respond.
Reactions are always instinctive whereas responses are always well thought of, just and right to save a situation from going out of hands, to avoid cracks in relationship, to avoid taking decisions in anger, anxiety, stress or hurry.

Food for Thought
Imam Sadiq [a] was asked about the meaning of 'piety' when he replied: "Piety is that Allah does not miss you in the place where He has commanded you to be, and does not see (find) you where He has forbidden you from." ------------------------------ Forgiveness: Why is it hard to forgive others? Usually because we believe that they are 90% to blame for the problem, that I am not as bad as they are. So I start to carry the load of other people's actions. If I feel too hurt, I will have the sense of correction, of justice: 'I know I am right', 'That is not fair'. But if I start to forgive from the heart, sincerely, then this kind of feeling and attitude begins to dissolve. I remain humble and this forgiveness will bring me closer to others. Then I do not carry regrets or anger, I just let go and remain light. ------------------------------ To get out of a difficulty, One usually must go through it… Every Sunset gives us one day Less to Live but Every Sunrise gives us one more day to Hope So Hope for the Best -------------------------------- "We are fast approaching the stage of the ultimate inversion: the stage where the government is free to do anything it pleases, while the citizens may act only by permission; which is the stage of the darkest periods of human history, the stage of rule by brute force. " -- Ayn Rand in "The Nature of Government" -------------------------- Until lions have their historians, tales of the hunt shall always glorify the hunters: African Proverb -------------------------- "My greatest fear is that too many members of the public will embrace the government's call to give up some freedom in return for greater safety, only to find that they have lost freedom without gaining safety." -- ACLU President Nadine Strossen, in the December, 2001 issue of Reason. --------------------------- "We've witnessed a fire sale of American liberties at bargain basement prices, in return for the false promise of more security... The America being designed right now won't resemble the America we've been defending... The danger isn't that Big Brother may storm the castle gates. The danger is that Americans don't realize that he is already inside the castle walls." -- Wayne LaPierre ---------------------------- "I believe that liberty is the only genuinely valuable thing that men have invented, at least in the field of government, in a thousand years. I believe that it is better to be free than to be not free, even when the former is dangerous and the latter safe. I believe that the finest qualities of man can flourish only in free air - that progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress, and of no permanent value. I believe that any man who takes the liberty of another into his keeping is bound to become a tyrant, and that any man who yields up his liberty, in however slight the measure, is bound to become a slave." -- H. L. Mencken, "Why Liberty?" January 30, 1927 ----------------------- "I would rather be exposed to the inconveniences attending too much liberty than to those attending too small a degree of it." - Thomas Jefferson to Archibald Stuart, 1791. ------------------------ "Tolerating imperfections is the price of freedom." -- Dr. Thomas Sowell ------------------------ "Liberty and Justice go hand in hand. You can't have one with out the other. The more restrictions that you place on Liberty, the more injustice you will receive." --Matthew Hays ------------------------- The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts. Bertrand Russel 1872-1970 British philosopher, historian -------------------------- In India when we meet and part we often say, "Namaste," which means: I honor the place in you where the entire universe resides; I honor the place in you of love, of light, of truth, of peace. I honor the place within you where if you are in that place in you and I am in that place in me, there is only one of us ... "Namaste." ... : Ram Dass ------------------------------- I submit that an individual who breaks a law that conscience tells him is unjust, and who willingly accepts the penalty of imprisonment in order to arouse the conscience of the community over its injustice, is in reality expressing the highest respect for law: Martin Luther King Jr., "Letter From Birmingham Jail", 4.16.63 ---------------------------- Only a free and unrestrained press can effectively expose deception in government. And paramount among the responsibilities of a free press is the duty to prevent any part of the government from deceiving the people: Black Hugo L. ---------------------------- "Propaganda is persuading people to make up their minds while withholding some of the facts from them.": Harold Evans ------------------------------ "The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.": Joseph Goebbels was born in 1897 and died in 1945. Goebbels was Hitler's Minister of Propaganda --------------------------- "It is easier to find a score of men wise enough to discover the truth than to find one intrepid enough, in the face of opposition to stand up for it:" A. A. Hodge ----------------------------- "It is from numberless diverse acts of courage and belief that human history is shaped. Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring, those ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance". Robert F. Kennedy US Attorney General 1961-64, assassinated in Los Angeles while campaigning ------------------------------ "I am done with great things and big things, great institutions and big success, and I am for those tiny invisible molecular moral forces that work from individual to individual, creeping through the crannies of the world like so many rootlets, or like the capillary oozing of water, yet which if you give them time, will rend the hardest monuments of man's pride": William James
