۞
Either Imam Sadiq (a.s) or Imam Baqir (a.s) has been narrated to have said
“There are seven things in the body in charge of remembrance of God: the tongue, the soul, the spirit, the intellect, the wisdom, the head, and the heart- either of which needs to persevere. The tongue's perseverance is attained through honesty in uttering words. The soul's perseverance is attained through presence of one's mind. The spirit's perseverance is attained through sincerity in repentance. The heart's perseverance is attained through properly begging for pardon. The intellect's perseverance is attained through properly learning from one's mistakes. The wisdom's perseverance is attained through proper pride, and the head's perseverance is attained through awareness of the secrets of the world. Thus the remembrance of God is equal to uttering praises of God for the tongue; struggling and hard work for the spirit; fear and hope for the soul; honesty and sincerity for the heart; exaltation and shyness for the intellect; submission and contentment for the wisdom; and witnessing to and approaching God for the head.”
روي عن بعض الصادقين
أنه قال: الذكر مقسوم على سبعة أعضاء: اللسان، والروح، والنفس، والعقل، والمعرفة، والسر، والقلب. وكل واحد يحتاج إلى استقامة، فاستقامة اللسان صدق الإقرار، واستقامة الروح صدق الاحتضار، واستقامة النفس صدق الاستغار، واستقامة القلب صدق الاعتذار، واستقامة العقل صدق الاعتبار، واستقامة المعرفة صدق الافتخار، واستقامة السر السرور بعالم الأسرار، وذكر اللسان الحمد والثناء، وذكر النفس الجهد والعناء، وذكر الروح الخوف والرجاء، وذكر القلب الصدق والصفاء، وذكر العقل التعظيم والحياء، وذكر المعرفة التسليم والرضا، وذكر السر الرؤية واللقاء.
