“When you wish to know whether there is any good in you, look at your heart.
There is some good in you if you love those who obey God. God will then love
you. But there is no good in you if you are the enemy of those who obey God,
and love those who sin. Then God will be your enemy. Every man is with whom
he loves.”
“God shall grant status and esteem to a person who, upon hearing my
teachings, pays heed to them, retains them in memory and conveys them to
those who have not heard them.”
al-Kafi, volume 1, page.403;
Behar al-Anwar, volume 2, page 148
“Be the friend of he who may grace you, not of one whom you are better
than.” (viz. make friends with ones who are higher than you so that you
progress.)
“If I find someone credited with one virtue from among many virtues, I will
accept him in my fold and I will forgive his lack of other virtues but I
shall never forgive the lack of wisdom and faith because want of faith
(religion) is want of peace (and security). Without doubt, life in fear is
unpleasant and lack of wisdom is equivalent to lack of life itself and a
person devoid of wisdom cannot be conceived except as a dead body.”
