Blind may the eyes be which do not see you watching and guarding your "self" (Arafa prayer; Biharol Anwar, Vol. 98, P. 226)

"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.

6 - O' people , the Messenger of God said: Whoever sees an aggressive tyrant legalizes the forbidden 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.

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. (Tohaf-al- Uqoul, 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.

If bodies were created for death; surely being killed with swords in the way of God is a more honorable death.

As if ( I can see ) my body parts and members are torn between Nawawis and Karbala to quench there thirst and hanger by killing me. There is no escape from such a divine fate. We, the household of the Prophet , are subservient to whatever God has destined us. We will be patient on this calamity which he has planned for us. Of course his Almighty will give us the reward of the patients. We are (A.S.) the body parts of the Prophet (S.A.W.) and his body parts will not separate from him. We will be surrounding the Prophet (S.A.W.) in the Paradise. By our departure from this world the Prophet (S.A.W.) will be delighted. The promises that have been given to us will be fulfilled.

For your enemies death is the opposite , it is like being transferred from a palace to a prison to be tortured. As my father quoted the Prophet (S.A.W.) as saying: " Surely, this world is a prison for the believer and a Paradise for the infidel." Death is a bridge to take some to their Paradise and some to their hell. I have never told lies and never was told lies. (Biharol Anwar, Vol. 44 , P. 297)
