10.A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from ibn Mahbub from Ali ibn Riâab ibn abu Yaâfur from Abu âAbdillah (a.s.) who has said the following: âThe Shiâa (followers) of Ali (a.s.) were of slim and lean bellies, and withered lips. They were people of compassion, knowledge, and forbearance. They were known as of monkish practice. You should assist each other in your cause with restraint from worldly attractions (sins) and be very hard working.â
