Let’s first review what Pleases Allah -azwj so the same will be the cause of rejoicing for the Ahl Al-Bayt -as ws , عَنْ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع قَالَ: إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى أَخْفَى أَرْبَعَةً فِي أَرْبَعَةٍ أَخْفَى رِضَاهُ فِي طَاعَتِهِ فَلَا تَسْتَصْغِرَنَّ شَيْئاً مِنْ طَاعَتِهِ فَرُبَّمَا وَافَقَ رِضَاهُ وَ أَنْتَ لَا تَعْلَمُ Amir Al-Momineen -asws (Ali -asws Ibn Abi Talib -asws ) says: Allah -azwj has Hidden His -azwj Pleasure in obedience to Him -azwj , so do not be belittling anything from obedience to Him -azwj .
Perhaps it will be in accordance with His -azwj Pleasure and you do not know (an extract, see the Hadith in Appendix II) In another Hadith: ثُمَّ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع رَحِمَ اللَّهُ شِيعَتَنَا شِيعَتُنَا وَ اللَّهِ هُمُ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ فَقَدْ وَ اللَّهِ شَرَكُونَا فِي الْمُصِيبَةِ بِطُولِ الْحُزْنِ وَ الْحَسْرَةِ. Then Abu Abdullah -asws said: ‘May Allah -azwj have Mercy on our -asws Shias. By Allah -azwj !
Our -asws Shias, they are the Momineen for, by Allah -azwj , they have participated with us -asws in the difficulties with prolonged grief and regret’’ . [2] Therefore, all intentions, supplications, acts of worship in the obedience of Ahl Al-Bayt -asws will result in their -asws pleasure (rejoicing). The next question is, how to find those acts which would please Ahl Al-Bayt -asws ?
عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْمَاعِيلَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ الْأَزْدِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ الْعَبْدِيِّ عَنْ جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ آبَائِهِ عَنْ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) لَا قَوْلَ إِلَّا بِعَمَلٍ وَ لَا قَوْلَ وَ لَا عَمَلَ إِلَّا بِنِيَّةٍ وَ لَا قَوْلَ وَ لَا عَمَلَ وَ لَا نِيَّةَ إِلَّا بِإِصَابَةِ السُّنَّةِ A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Khalid, from his father, from Abu Ismail Ibrahim Bin Is’haq Al Azdy, from Abu Usman Al Abady, from; (Imam) Ja’far -asws , from his -asws forefathers -asws , from Amir Al-Momineen -asws having said: ‘Rasool-Allah -saww said: ‘ There is no word except with the deed, and there is neither a word nor a deed except with an intention, and there is neither a word nor a deed nor an intention except with attaining the Sunnah ’.
[3] وَ قَالَ ع …وَ كُلُّ يَوْمٍ لَا [نَعْصِي اللَّهَ] يُعْصَى اللَّهُ فِيهِ فَهُوَ يَوْمُ عِيدٍ [عِيدٌ] Also, (Amir Al-Momineen -asws ) said: Every day in which we do not disobey Allah -azwj , to it is a day of Eid’’.
