۞
The Prophet (a.s) told Imam Hussein (a.s): “Perform what is divinely obligatory to be the most virtuous, be content with what is divinely destined to be the most self-sufficient. Avoid the divinely forbidden to be the most pious. Treat your neighbors kindly to be among the believers, and treat your companions with kindness to be a Muslim.”
قال النبي (صلى الله عليه وآله) للحسين بن علي (عليهما السلام): اعمل بفرائض الله تكن أتقى الناس، وارض بما قسم الله تكن أغنى الناس، وكف عن محارم الله تكن أورع الناس، وأحسن مجاورة من جاورك تكن مؤمنا، وأحسن مصاحبة من صاحبك تكن مسلما.
