Responding to the question of Imam Ali (AS) regarding what the best deeds in Ramadan month are, the Holy Prophet said: O dear Ali! The best deed is to avoid and keep yourself clean from all imperfections and all ill-gotten things (Haram)

Professor Ansarian said: going to hell requires a lot of efforts and you need to work for it a lot. one must act so badly, must be angry enough, must usurp people’s properties, must kill so many people, must hurt people’s feelings, must drink so much alcoholic beverages, must commit adultery, must trample people’s rights and disrespect them so that he can go to Hell, but going to paradise has no cost for you.

The felicity and piety of the child depend largely upon the spiritual and rational state of the parents as well as the Halal foods they have eaten. 

Why my prayers are not being answered? Where is the source of troubles? Are my parents not satisfied with me? Have I eaten an ill-gotten (Haram) food, I make someone sad? Have I resented the Imam of the time (A.S)? you have to turn your back on evils and turn your heart to God, then you see that your prayers are answered!

If you want to make your prayers costly, you need to do what Imam Zayn al-Abedin (A.S) used to do. After interring the Master of the Martyrs, Imam Hussein (A.S), he took a handful of soil from beside his grave and used to prostrate on it in his prayers.  

The one who has reached the level of self-knowledge will never trade himself with something more ignoble and less than himself.

Prayer means begging from a Sacred and self-contained being who he himself has ordered to pray and has also promised its acceptance; but provided that the obstacles of the prayer are removed like ill-gotten properties.

God says in Surah al-Imran:

O believers! Do not go slowly towards God to get his forgiveness, because you may not succeed in doing so.

Having heard about the martyrdom of her sons, Umm ul-Banin asked for the healthiness and soundness of Imam Hussien (peace be upon him) and did not ask anything about her sons, because she considered her sons a sacrifice for Imam Hussein (peace be upon him), this issue represent Umm-um Banin's nobleness and her obedience to Wilayat (guardianship).

عنْ أَبِي جَعْفَر (ع) قَالَ : إِنَّ أَكْمَلَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ إِيمَاناً أَحْسَنُهُمْ خُلُقاً

Imam al-Baqir (a) said: “The most perfect believers, in the sight of faith, are the most well-mannered.”

وأَنْ لَيْسَ لِلْإِنْسَانِ إِلَّا مَا سَعَىٰ

and that everyone will have in his account only that which he endeavored for

Surah An Najm- verse 39

According to Imam Sadiq (peace be upon him); the most pious people are those who are sensitive about their obligatory acts and nothing prioritizes such acts.

O dears! Do not listen to " evil ideas, desires and powers of lust, anger, and insatiable imagination", it is pretty hard though, because you need to avoid many pleasures, money and positions. This is so priceless that someone gave up lust, wealth and position for half an hour and became Hur ibn Yazid al-Riyahi.

Imam Reza (peace be upon him) pointed out some signs for the Shiites and said: Our Shiites are the ones who surrender to our orders, they only obey our speech and oppose our enemies.

Professor Ansarian:

According to Islamic manners and the tradition of the Holy prophet (PBUH), so long as the interior refinement and the correction of one,s ego have not taken place for human, he is incapable of Understanding other people's rights.
