Mu'awiyah ibn Ammar says: I said to Imam Jā’far Šādiq (peace be with him):

Theres a man who narrates a lot of narrations (hadīth) from you (progeny of prophet) and spreads among the people and establishes it in the hearts of the people and in the hearts of your Shīah; and maybe there is a devoted worshipper from your Shīah, who is not as efficient as the first one in narrating (and spreading) “Hadīth like him,

(Therefore) Which one is better?

Imām replied: "first one who narrates our hadiths and strengthen the hearts of our Shiites” is better than a thousand worshippers.

عَنْ مُعَاوِیَةَ بْنِ عَمّارٍ قَالَ قُلْتُ لِأَبِی عَبْدِ اللّهِ ع رَجُلٌ رَاوِیَةٌ لِحَدِیثِکُمْ یَبُثّ ذَلِکَ فِی النّاسِ وَ یُشَدّدُهُ فِی قُلُوبِهِمْ وَ قُلُوبِ شِیعَتِکُمْ وَ لَعَلّ عَابِداً مِنْ شِیعَتِکُمْ لَیْسَتْ لَهُ هَذِهِ الرّوَایَةُ أَیّهُمَا أَفْضَلُ قَالَ الرّاوِیَةُ لِحَدِیثِنَا یَشُدّ بِهِ قُلُوبَ شِیعَتِنَا أَفْضَلُ مِنْ أَلْفِ عَابِدٍ
اصول کافى جلد 1 ص :40 روایة: 9

معاویه بن عمار گوید: به امام صادق علیه السلام عرض کردم: مردى است که از شما روایت بسیار نقل کند و میان مردم انتشار دهد و آن را در دل مردم و دل شیعیانتان استوار کند و شاید عابدى از شیعیان شما باشد که در روایت چون او نباشد کدامیک بهترند؟ فرمود: آنکه احادیث ما را روایت کند و دلهاى شیعیانمان را استوار سازد از هزارعابد بهتر است.

أميرالمؤمنين امام علي بن ابيطالب عليهما السلام:
🔷🔶 ألا لا خير في علم ليس فيه تفهم

🔷🔶 ألا لا خير في عبادة ليس فيها تفكر


Imam Ali (peace be with him) said:

🔷🔶Be aware! Knowledge without perception has no profit!

🔷🔶Be aware! Recitation of the Qur’an without thoughtful deliberation and insight following it, is of little use!

🔷🔶Be aware! Worship lacking contemplation in it has no effect!

Once a maid of Imam Hasan (AS) dropped a hot bowl of soup on Imam (AS). She was very scared because she thought the Imam (AS) would be angry and punish her. She immediately recited the verse: "Those who control (their) anger". [3:134]
Imam Hasan (AS) smiled and said he was not angry. Then she recited the next part of the verse: "…And are forgiving towards people..." Imam Hasan (AS) said he had forgiven her. She then finished the verse: "...Allah loves those who do good..." Imam Hasan (AS) told her she was free. [Anecdotes from the Lives of the 14 Ma’sumeen]

🔷🔶A man came to Imam Ali ibn Husayn Zain-ul Abedin (peace be with them): asked him some questions and the Imam answered. Then the man returned to ask more questions, so the Imam advised him:

🍃🍃It is written in the Injīl (gospel):

🍃🍃Do not seek knowledge concerning that which you do not know when you have not yet acted upon what you have already learned. Verily the knowledge of a scholar who does not act upon it does not increase him except in disbelief (kufr) and distance from God.

🌴Imam As-Sadiq (peace be with him) said:

🌹"إنَّ لاَِهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ اَرْبَعَ عَلامات: وَجْهٌ مُنْبَسِطٌ وَ لِسانٌ فَصِيْحٌ وَ قَلْبٌ رَحِيْمٌ وَ يَدٌ مُعْطِيَةٌ"

🌹"The people of paradise have four signs:

🌲Open face (that exhibits honesty and sincerity)
🌲Eloquent and clear tongue
🌲Merciful heart
🌲Bountiful hand".

📝Brief Description by Ayatollah Makarem Shirazi:

💠The noblest human schools are those which train individuals to acquire good character and become valuable members of the society because society is the source of all blessings.

💠The signs which the above tradition attributes to the people of paradise are all concerned with factors that strengthen social relations and sow seeds of affection in the land of society.

💠Open and pleasant faces, soft and kind, with clear and eloquent tongues, with hearts yearning to help people, and hands not holding back assistance – Yes! these are the signs of the people of paradise.

@AbodeofWisdom

🔹🔸🔸🔸🔹🔸🔸🔸🔹🔸🔸🔸🔹

Zakat al-Fitra is obligatory on the individual who is sane, an adult (physically mature), and financially capable (whose finances are secured through available assets or continuous income).

🔹 http://ijtihadnet.com/zakat-al-fitra-according-to-ayatollah-sistanis-islamic-law/

🔹 Ijtihadnetwork: This type of Zakat should be set aside on the eve of Eid al-Fitr and be paid on the day itself, which marks the first day of the month of Shawwal. It may also be paid earlier to a delegated person/organization, who will take the appropriate steps to distribute it during the obligated time period.

This paper is to talk about the legal rulings of Zakat al-Fitr according to Ayatollah Sistani’s fatwas. In order to make readily accessible, the contents are classified into some categories as bellow:

🔸 First: A person should give Zakat with the intention of Qurbat, that is, to comply with the pleasure of Almighty Allah. And he should specify in his Niyyat, whether he is giving the Zakat on his wealth, or Zakatul Fitra.

🔸 Second: Conditions of Obligation.
Payment of the fitrah is obligatory on whoever is adult and sane and is neither unconscious, nor poor, nor the slave of another. He should give, on his own behalf as well as on behalf of all those who are his dependents, about three kilos per head of wheat or barley or dates or raisins or rice or millet etc.

🔸 Third: The Payer of Zakat al-Fitra.
At the time of sunset on Eid ul fitr night (i.e. the night preceding Eid day), whoever is adult and sane and is neither unconscious, nor poor, nor the slave of another, he should give, on his own behalf as well as on behalf of all those who are his dependents, about three kilos per head of wheat or barley or dates or raisins or rice or millet etc.

Note: If it is obligatory on a person to pay the fitrah of another person, his obligation will not end if the latter himself pays his own fitrah.

🔸 Forth: The dependents.
One should pay Fitrah on behalf of all those persons who are treated as his dependents at his house on the nightfall of Eid ul fitr, whether they be young or old, Muslims or non-Muslims; irrespective of whether or not it is obligatory on him to maintain them, and whether they are in his own town or in some other town.

🔸 Fifth: Some Instances of the Dependents such as Guest, Fetus etc.

🔹 Fetus
If one’s child is born after the sunset on the night of Eid ul fitr, it is not obligatory to give its fitrah. However, the obligatory precaution is that one should pay the fitrah of all those who are considered one’s dependents after sunset, till before the Zuhr of Eid.

🔹 Guest
It is obligatory to pay the fitrah of a guest who arrives at his house before sunset on Eid ul fitr night, with his consent, and he becomes his temporary dependent.

🔹 Employer
If a person employs someone like a carpenter, or a servant, and agrees to maintain him fully, he should pay his fitrah as well. But if he agrees that he would pay him for his labour, it is not obligatory on him to pay his fitrah.

@AbodeOfWisdom
🔹🔸🔸🔸🔹🔸🔸🔸🔹🔸🔸🔸🔹

🔹🔸🔸🔸🔹🔸🔸🔸🔹🔸🔸🔸🔹

🔸 Sixth: The type, value, and conditions of what should be paid of Zakat al-Fitra.

Zakat al-Fitra should be given about three kilos per head of wheat or barley or dates or raisins or rice or millet etc.

It is also sufficient if he pays the price of one of these items in cash. As per obligatory precaution, he should not give from that food which is not staple in his place, even if it be wheat, barley, dates or raisins.

It is necessary that wheat or any other thing which a person gives as fitrah is not mixed with another commodity or dust, and if it is mixed, but in its pure form it equals a sa’a (about 3 kilos) and the quantity of the thing mixed with it is negligible or usable, there is no harm in it.

If a person gives fitrah from a thing which is inferior or defective, it will not be sufficient.

🔸 Seventh:The rulings of payment

🔹 Time of Payment
It is not correct to give fitrah before the month of Ramadhan, and it is better that it should not be given even during the month of Ramadhan. However, if a person gives loan to a poor person before Ramadhan, and adjusts the loan against fitrah, when payment of fitrah becomes obligatory, there is no harm in it.

🔹 Deadline for the Payment
If a person offers Eid ul fitr prayers, he should, on the basis of obligatory precaution, give fitrah before Eid prayers. But if he does not offer Eid prayers, he can delay giving fitrah till Zuhr.

🔹 Delivery time
If a person sets aside fitrah from his main wealth, and does not give it to a person entitled to receive it till Zuhr of Eid day, he should make Niyyat of fitrah as and when he gives it.

If a person does not give fitrah at the time when its payment becomes obligatory, and does not also set it aside, he should give fitrah later on the basis of precaution, without making the Niyyat of ada or qadha.

🔸 Eighth: Exchanging the Amount Earmarked for Zakat al-Fitr

If a person sets aside fitrah, he cannot take it for his own use, and replace it with another sum or thing.

🔸 Ninth: How to Deliver Zakat al-Fitra

It is not necessary that the poor to whom fitrah is given should know that this is as Zakat al-Fitra.

🔹 Farewell to God's Month 🔹

🔹 Prophet of Peace said about the virtue of Holy Month of Ramadhan:

"The month of Ramadan is the month of God and the month of forgiveness."

🔹 Imām Sayyid-us Sajedīn Zain-ul Ābedīn (Peace be with him) in the prayer of Farewell to Ramadan how beautiful says:

🔹 O God! Thank you (for tolerating with mercy) to our misdeeds and our laziness (for not putting enough efforts to do good deeds and asking forgiveness), while (I promise you that) in our hearts we have a definite repentance and honest excuse on our tongue.

🔹 O my Lord! We belong to this month in which you gave us honor and bestowed us the chance of perceiving (its great bounties) while the misfortunate ones did not know the value of their time and were deprived of their bounty because of their bad intentions and carelessness.

🔹 You are the superintendent of what your knowledge has bestowed upon us and what your tradition has guided unto us.

🔹 And by your grace and favor, we rose up with success in fasting and prayers. And with in regard to shortcomings we performed "a little bit of too much" (but nonetheless hope that you forgive our less deeds with shortcomings and accept it by your favor).

🔹 O God! So (we) thank you (alongside) with confessing to our misdeeds and our mistakes, while in our hearts we have a definite repentance and honest excuse on our tongue.

🔸 وداع با ماه مبارك رمضان 🔸

🔸 پیامبر گرامی اسلام در فضیلت ماه مبارک رمضان فرموند :
«ماه رمضان، ماه خدا و ماه مغفرت است».

🔸 حضرت زین‌العابدین امام سجاد علیه السلام در دعای وداع با ماه رمضان چقدر زیبا فرمودند :

🔸 خداوندا! تو را سپاس همراه با اقرار به بدی‌هایمان و اعتراف به سهل‏ انگاری‌مان، در حالی که در قلوبمان ندامت قطعی و بر زبانمان عذر صادقانه داریم.

🔸 بارالها! ما اهل این ماهی هستیم که ما را به آن شرافت بخشیدی و توفیق ادراکش را به ما عنایت فرمودی آن‌گاه که تیره‌‌بختان وقتش را نشناختند و از بخت‌بدشان از فضلش محروم شدند.

🔸 تویی سرپرست آن‌چه از معرفتش که ما را بدان برتری دادی و آنچه از سنتش که ما را بدان رهنمون شدی.

🔸 و ما به توفیق تو، به روزه و نماز آن برخاستیم و همراه با تقصیر "اندکی از بسیار" را بجا آوردیم.

🔸 خداوندا! پس تو را سپاس همراه با اقرار به بدی‌هایمان و اعتراف به سهل‌ انگاری‌مان، در حالی که در قلوبمان ندامت قطعی و بر زبانمان عذر صادقانه داریم.
