۞
Imam Ali (AS) said, Be wary of your duty towards Allah with the wariness of one who hears [the message of guidance] hence humbly submits, commits a misdeed hence confesses [and repents], learns [the truth] hence trembles in fear, is cautious [about the Hereafter] hence takes the initiative [to do good] and performs an action and does it well.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : اِتِّقُوا اللّهَ تَقِيَّةَ مَنْ سَمِعَ فَخَشَعَ وَ اقْتَرَفَ فَاعْتَرَفَ وَ عَلِمَ فَوَجِلَ وَ حاذَرَ فَبادَرَ وَ عَمِلَ فَأحْسَنَ
