Addition to his guidance & loss of his blindness.

Addition to his guidance & loss of his blindness. (Aberration) And know it there is no Poverty & adversity for anyone after having' Quran (with him) & nobody has any wealth & needlessness before having the Holy Quran (with him). [^3] 3- ماجالَسَ هذَا القُرانَ اَحَدٌ إِلاّ قامَ عَنهُ بِزِيادةٍ اَو نُقصانٍ زيادَةٍ في هُدیً، وَنُقصانٍ مُن عمیً، وَاعلَمُوا أَنَّهُ لَيسَ عَلی أَحَدٍ بَعدَ القُرانِ مِن فاقَةٍ، وَلِأَ لأحَدٍ قَبلَ القُرانِ مِن غِنیَّ.

(الحياة ج2 ص101) The one who is pleased & satisfied with the deed of a nation (group) is like the one who has shared that with it. And for all those entering into a falsehood there are two sins; the sin of practice & the sin of being pleased with it.[^4] 4- اَلرّاضی بِفِعلِ قَومٍ کَالدّاخِلِ فِيهِ مَعَهُم ،وَعَلی کُلّ داخل فِي باطِلٍ اِثمانِ اثمُ العَمَلِ بِهِ وَاِثمُ الرَّضا بِهِ. (نهج البلاغه لصبحی الصالح،قصارالحکم154، ص499) Ali (as) was questioned about faith.

So he replied: Faith rests upon four pillars. Patience 2. Certitude 3. Justice 4. Jihad (holy war). And patience out of those, has four branches. Keenness & eagerness (2) fear (3) Piety (4) wait.

The one who is keen & eager for Heaven steps aside the passionate temptations & the one who has the fear of hell fire abstains & refrains from the forbidden deeds & the one who has asceticism in the world takes the calamities & anguishes (of life) easy & the person who is looking forward to & waiting for death makes haste & hurry towards the good deeds. And Jihad (holy war) is based upon four branches. 1. The ordering of good deeds. Stopping from the bad deeds.

& truthfulness on the battle front of struggle & combat. 4. & the enmity with transgressors. So, the one who orders the good deeds strengthens the backs of faithful’s. And the one who stops people from bad deeds has rubbed the noses of the infidels upon dust (belittled & weakened them). And the one who truth fully stands up in the battle field has discharged an obligatory practice.

And the one who gets enraged & furious with the transgressors & gets angry for Allah, Allah too becomes enraged & angry for his sake & will please him on the resurrection day. [^5] 5- سُئِلَ عَلَيهِ السَّلامُ عَنِ الايمانِ، فَقالَ:الإيمانُ عَلی أَربَعِ دَعائِمَ:عَلَی الصَّبرِ وَاليَقِينِ وَالعَدلِ الجِهادَ.
