عنْهُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: يَا إِسْحَاقُ خَفِ اَللَّهَ كَأَنَّكَ تَرَاهُ فَإِنْ لَمْ تَرَاهُ فَإِنَّهُ يَرَاكَ
Imam Sadiq (as) states: fear God-Almighty as though you are actually seeing Him, and even if you do not see Him, He sees you.

Imam Sadiq (as) states: fear God-Almighty as though you are actually seeing Him, and even if you do not see Him, He sees you.
In the words of Imam Askari (AS), if one hundred and twenty-four thousand prophets and we, the fourteen infallibles, are sitting in a line and a true believer passes by us, we will rise in full respect; Because what values a believer is his connection to God and faith in the Resurrection.
According to the words of the Messenger of Allah (PBUH), whoever purifies himself of all impurities for forty days and nights and no impurity particles remain in his heart, soul, morals and deeds and becomes completely pure, the sources of wisdom flow from his heart to his tongue.
In the eyes of the messenger of God Almighty, the one who loves God fully pays attention to his beloved one, not worldly stuff. If he has Halal income, he will consume it and help people according to the narrations and the verses of the Holy Quran.
The Holy Prophet of Islam is the best and true benchmark and criterion for faith, morality and behavior.
The key to the pathway toward sublime and divine positions is to try for the purification of our souls. Realizing the divine positions is impossible unless human being achieves the divine morals inwardly and gets rid of the moral vices and humanity's soul is purified and cleansed from evils.
One of the forgotten tasks of the believers toward each other is overlooking one another’s errors and faults. Imam Baqir (as) says. The right of the believers on one another is to cover up to seventy great sins of one another.

The Infallible Imams say: if you only go after the Holy Quran, or only go after the narrations, you are going astray. A comprehensive and complete Islam is both the holy Quran and Ahlulbayt.
Professor Ansarian:
The eulogy of Imam Hussein and weeping in his tragedy is one of the best ways of spiritual progress and reaching the spiritual positions. The genuine and true mourning ceremonies and religious gatherings can lead one to the peak of human perfection.
Professor Ansarian: The main goal of holding mourning ceremony is to defend the oppressed and support the innocent. The soul of Imam Hussein’s movement is not congruous with oppressing the human, families and the innocent people.
The one who knows Almighty God, will avoid sins related to his mouth and will not eat an ill-gotten food.
The straight path must be continued. Endurance is required in spiritual progress toward Allah Almighty. To get the divine reward, we must stay in the very path.
God says in the Holy Quran: O mankind! You deserve so much that I illuminated the transcendental light of guidance in you that no other creature possesses it. You are the khalifatullah (Allah's vicegerent) and the divine dignity.
The Imam of the time said to Ali ibn Mahziar: give my greetings to my Shias and tell them that I pray for them, and you too pray for my reappearance; I miss you, I want you to see me and I am also eager to meet you.
For Shiites, the ruins of the grave of the Imams at al-Baqi are of the same value with the gold of the dome of Imam Reza (peace be upon him) holy Shrine. For Shiites, there is no difference between gold and soil, and what matters for them is their proximity to Allah and resorting to them.
Mankind is constantly moving forward, there is no going backward forever. He keeps on going so that he either reaches the Paradise or Hell
