(إحقاق الحق ج12 ص436) Allah revealed to some of the Prophets: Nevertheless, your piety in the World makes you easy & comfortable. Moreover, you’re disconnecting from the world & turning toward me makes you honorable by me. But have you ever made anyone your enemy for me. And made a friend for me? (I.e. for my sake)?
[^3] 3- اَوحَی اللهُ اِلی بَعضِ الأنبِياءِ: اَمّا زُهدُکَ فِی الدُّنيا فَتُعَجّلُکَ الرّاحَة،وَاَمّا انقِطاعُکَ اِلَیَّ فَيُعَزِّزُکَ بِي، وَلکِن هَل عادَيتَ لي عَدُوّاً وَوالَيتَ لي وَلِيّاً؟ (تحف العقول ص456) The person who is present (sees) witnesses a matter & dislikes it is like the one who is absent about it (hasn't witnessed it) & the person who is absent (at the occurrence) of a matter & is pleased & approves it is like someone who has witnessed. (Was present while it occurred).
[^4] 4- مَن شَهِدَ أَمراً فَکَرِهَهُ کانَ کَمَن غابَ عَنهُ، وَمَن غابَ عَن أَمرٍ فَرَضِيَهُ کانَ کَمَن شَهِدَهُ. (تحف القول ص456) If the ignorant keeps silent, people would not differ. [^5] 5- لَو سَکَتَ الجاهِلُ مَا اختَلَفَ النّاسُ. (احقاق الحق ج2 ص432) It is sufficient for a man's being dishonest that he becomes the trustee of dishonest ones. [^6] 6- کَفی بِالمَرءِ خِيانَةً أَن يَکُونَ أَميناً لِلخَوَنَةِ.
(اعيان الشيعة (الطبع الجديد) ج2 ص36) The one who lends ear to a speaker he has worshiped him. So if the speaker is from Allah's side (speaks the word of Allah) then he has adorned Allah and if the speaker is speaking from the tongue of Satan then he has worshiped Satan. [^7] 7- مَن أَصغی إِلی ناطِقِ فَقَد عَبَدَهُ،فَإن کانَ النّاطِقُ عَنِ اللهِ فَقَد عَبَدَ اللهَ،وَ إِن کانَ النّاطِقُ يَنطِقُ عَن لِسانِ إِبليسَ فَقَد عَبَدَ إِبليسَ.
(تحف العقول ص456) Delaying repentance is a deception & prolonging the period before making repentance is an amazingly wandering. And adducing pretexts & making excuses before Allah is an annihilation. And insisting upon sin is being (considering oneself) safe from the scheme of Allah. And no one ever thinks himself safe from the scheme of Allah except the community of losers.
[^8] 8- تَأخِيرُ التَّوبَةِ اغتِرارٌ.وَطُولُ التَّسويفِ حَيرَةٌ.وَالاِ عِتلالُ عَلَی اللهِ هَلَکَةٌ، وَالاِصرارُ عَلی الذَّنبِ أَمنٌ لِمَکرِ اللهِ «وَلا يَأمَنُ مَکرَ اللهِ إلاّ القَومُ الخاسِرُونَ».
