Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books Imam Al-sadiq His Life and His Good Manners prelude: The life of a person denotes his inner-self. And his inner-self is hidden in his life. The seducers of fraud who pretense to conceal what their hearts have through showing good manners and guidance. Their words and acts quickly expose their inward thoughts. Indeed, the slips of their tongue and their acts show what has been hidden in their beans. The garment of pretense reveals what is under it.

So, if you cover yourself with it, then you are naked. Good men with knowledge always try to hide their pure innerselves to avoid enchantment and fame. However, their good deeds spread. And the glory of their holy souls shines. (As the poet says): And whatever a quality the person has even if he thinks that it remains secret for people, it (the quality) is known.

Yes, perhaps a group of people stands up to protect this deceiving band because of the party or deception by the surface of those good affairs. Besides, a group of people may rush to damage the great figures to follow some persons whom the diseases of envy, spite, ignorance, and stubbornness have mined, but the clear- headed person does not ignore the truth. And the sieve cannot cover the sun. The life of al- Sâdiq, peace be on him, guides us to his qualities and informs us about his inner- self.

He was among the members of the house (ahl al Bayt), whom Allah drove away uncleanness and purified them thoroughly. He was among the family whom the Prophet, may Allah bless him and his family, left among his community to explain the silent Book of Allah. Besides, his family and Allah’s Book formed ‘the firmest handle which shall not break off. And whoever holds fast to it shall be saved from the ways of misguidance.’ Thus,.

through his righteous life, at- Sâdiq wanted to bring people out of misguidance, and ignorance. Also he wanted to make them enter guidance and knowledge. Mid his inner- self was embodied in the career of his life. So, we will mention some examples of his life to indicate his great manners and his holy Alawid soul who spared no effort to lead people toward guidance and righteousness.

His Social Mannera: Laudable manners maybe psychological instincts and natural habits, such as generosity, bravery, cheerfulness, and eloquence. Also they maybe acquisitive, such as worship, religious devotion, knowledge, sciences, arts, and so on.
