Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books Ghurar Al-Hikam Wa Durar Al-Kalim, Exalted Aphorisms And Pearls Of Speech Vices And Those Who Commit Them Vices and Those who commit them الذُّنوب والمعاصي وأهلها Vices are a disease, and its remedy is seeking forgiveness, and its cure is not repeating [the vices]. 1ـ الذُّنوبُ الدّاءُ، والدَّواءُ الاِسْتِغفارُ،وَ الشِّفاءُ أنْ لا تَعُودَ. Taking a sin lightly is worse than committing the sin. 2ـ تَهْوينُ الذَّنبِ أعْظَمُ مِنْ رُكُوبِ الذَّنْبِ.

Giving up sin is difficult, but giving up Paradise is [going to be] more difficult. 3ـ تَرْكُ الذَّنْبِ شَديدٌ، وأشَدُّ مِنْهُ تَرْكُ الجَنَّةِ. Things come to us that seem to be much when we amass them but which we consider to be less when we divide them. 4ـ تَأتينا أشْياءُ نَسْتَكْثِرُها إذا جَمَعْناها، وَنَسْتَقِلُّها إذا قَسَمْناها. Be careful of the sins that lead you to deep trouble the vices that bring the wrath of Allah. 5ـ اِحْذَرُوا الذُّنُوبَ المُورِطَةَ، والعُيُوبَ المُسْخِطَةَ.

Refrain from desecration of the sacred, for indeed this is the practice of the wicked and the people of depravity and vice. 6ـ إيّاكَ وانْتِهاكَ المَحارِمِ، فَإنَّها شيمَةُ الفُسّاقِ وأُولِي الفُجُورِ، والغَوايَةِ. Refrain from persistence [in committing vices] for it is surely the gravest of great sins and the worst of offences. 7ـ إيّاكَ والإصْرارَ، فَإنَّهُ مِنْ أكْبَرِ الكَبائِرِ وأعَظَمِ الجَرائِمِ. Refrain from exposing [your] sins, for this is one of the worst of offences.

8ـ إيّاكَ والمُجاهَرَةَ بِالفُجُورِ، فَإنَّها مِنْ أشَدِّ المَ آثِمِ. Refrain from vices, for the one who sells the eternal Paradise for a vile sin from the sins of this world is indeed wretched. 9ـ إيّاكَ والمعصِيَةَ، فَإنَّ اللَئيمَ (الشَّقيَّ) مَنْ باعَ جَنَّـةَ المَأوى بِمَعْصِيَة دَنِيَّة مِنْ مَعاصِي الدُّنيا. Do not take the committing of vices lightly, for verily it will cover you with humiliation in this world and earn you the wrath of Allah in the Hereafter.

10ـ إيّاكَ أنْ تَسْتَسْهِلَ رُكُوبَ المَعاصي، فَإنَّها تَـكْسُوكَ فِي الدُّنيا ذِلَّةً، وتَـكْسِبُكَ فِي الآخِرَةِ سَخَطَ اللّهِ. Verily wrongdoings are [like] wild horses that carry their riders on their backs while their bridles have been thrown off, so they take them [straight] into the fire of hell. 11ـ ألا وإنَّ الخَطايا خَيْلٌ شُمُسٌ حُمِلَ عَلَيْها أهْلُها، وخُلِعَتْ لُجُمُها فَأوْرَدَتْهُمُ النَّارَ. The greatest misdeed is recommending the vicious.

12ـ أكْبَرُ الأَوْزارِ تَزْكِيَةُ الأشْرارِ.
