(تحف العقول ص386) FORTY DISCOURSES FROM IMAM MUSA KAZIM(A.
(تحف العقول ص386) FORTY DISCOURSES FROM IMAM MUSA KAZIM(A.S) I found the knowledge of people in four (things) firstly, that you know your lord (recognition of Allah) & secondly that you know it as to what factors He made use of in creating you, & thirdly that you know as to what does he want & intend from you & fourthly that you learn what is it that will expell you from your religion. (AYAN U SHIA (the modem print) VOL 2. P 9) Indeed, there are two arguments & proofs from Allah for the people.
The conspicuous & apparant arguments. The esoteric & intrinsic argument (proof) None theless, apparent authorities are the Prophets, apostles & messengers & the Imams(A.S) However, the esoteric (ones) so these are the (human) intellects (minds). (BIHAR UL ANWAR VOL 1. P 137) 0, Hisham! verily, Luqman said to his son ',Adopt humility & humbleness for the right (Allah) you will become the intellectual most of the people, Oh son! World is a deep & profound ocean.
Already lot many of the world creations have emersed & sunk into it. So make Piety your ship in it (to sail out safely) & make the faith it's cargo & putting trust in Allah it's sails & intellect (mind & wits) it's sailer (guide & captain) & knowledge it's guide & patience it's passengers (on board). (TUHf1JL AQOOL P 386) 4- تَفَقَّهُوا في دينِ اللهِ فاِنَّ الفِقهَ مِفتاحُ البَصيرَةِ وَتَمامُ العِبادَةِ وَالسَّبَبُ اِلی المَنازِلِ الرَّفيعَةِ وَالرُّتَبِ الجَليلَةِ في الدّينِ وَالدُّنيا.
