SAYINGS OF THE KING OF MARTYRS, THE INFALLIBLE IMAM HUSAYN (AS)
The Infallible Imam Husayn (a.s.) was the son of the Gateway of
Knowledge, the Gateway of
Wisdom, the Commander of the
Faithful Imam Ali (a.s.). His
sayings are numerous, some of
the selected ones are:
1. Wisdom never attains perfection except by following the truth (obeying the
commandments of Allah).
2. One who loves you prevents you from all evils, while your enemy persuades
you to commit wrong and evil.
3. Act in this world like a person who knows that he will be rewarded for
virtuous deeds and punished for
sins and crimes.
4. One who annoys Allah to please people, Allah leaves him to the people.
5. One who accepts your gift has really helped you in attaining generosity.
6. One who removes troubles from a believer, Allah expels troubles from him
in this world and in the
Hereafter.
7. Do not seek help from anyone except the one who is religious, or generous,
or of noble descent (parentage)
8. One who is generous may attain greatness and he who is miser becomes
miserable.
9. The most generous person is one who helps the despondent, who does not
expect any help from others.
10. Compete
for virtuous deeds and hasten to
seize opportunities for
honorable deeds.
11. The
most forgiving person is the one
who forgives despite his ability
to punish.
12. Don’t
speak about your brother behind
his back except you like to be
spoken about you behind your
back.
13. A
salaam (greetings) has seventy
virtues, sixty-nine of which are
for the one who is first to
greet, whereas only one award is
for the one who replies (to your
salaam).
14. Do
not allow anyone to enter or
speak to you if he does not
greet you or wish you salaam.
15. A
miser behaves miserly even in
greeting salaam to others.
16. What
has he obtained who lost You O
God? And what has he lost who
found You?
17. People
are slave of this world. They
revolve around religion if their
materialistic needs are well
provided; but when they face
difficulties, tests and trials,
very few people prove to be
steadfast.
18. God
initiated commanding the good
and forbidding the evil as a
compulsory duty for us, as He
knows that if these two duties
are well performed and
established, then all other
Divine duties whether difficult
or easy, shall be established as
well; and this this commandment
and forbiddance shall invite
people to Islam, and secured the
rights of the wronged people as
well as arouse opposition
against tyrants and
transgressors.
19. A
nation, which buys the goodwill
of the people at the cost of
annoying the Creator, can never
be happy and fortunate.
20. To
argue with one who is unable to
think reasonably, is an
indication of one’s ignorance.
21. Beware
of oppressing a person, who
finds no one to revenge against
you except the God the Mighty
and Majestic.
