Imam al-Sadiq (AS) said, ‘A servant is not a believer until he is both fearful and hopeful, and he is not fearful and hopeful until he acts in accordance with what he fears and what he hopes for.
الإمامُ الصّادقُ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : لا يكونُ العَبدُ مؤمناً حتّى يكونَ خائفاً راجِياً ، ولا يكونُ خائفاً راجِياً حتّى يكونَ عامِلاً لِما يَخافُ ويَرْجو.
