Verily, Allah the Mighty and High, made us the best of creation, and moulded us from the best of moulds. He made us His Eye though which He sees His Servants. He made us the Tongue with which He speaks to His Creation. He made us the Outspread Hand of Mercy over His Servants. He made us the Face through which He bestows His Bounties.1 He made us the Gate that leads to Him. And He made us His Treasure in the Heaven and on His Earth. It is due to us2 that trees bear fruits, that fruit ripens, that rivers flow, that clouds shower down rain, and that the Earth grows grass. It is through our service [`ibadah], Allah is served. If it were not for us, Allah would not have been worshipped.3

I said: May I be sacrificed for you. There is a narration that was narrated by Abdullah bin Bukair, ofUbaid bin Zurara. He said: Then he said: And what is it? He said: I said: It was narrated from Ubaid bin Zurara, that he met Abu Abdillah, peace be upon him, in the year Ibrahim bin Abdullah ibn Hasan went out (in opposition), and that he said to him: May I be sacrificed for you, indeed, this man has made his speech friendly and made the people quickly join him, so what do you command (us) to? He said: Then he said: Fear Allah and be calm as long as the Heaven and the earth are calm. He said: Abdullah bin Bukair also used to say: By Allah, verily, if Ubaid bin Zurara was truthful, there will be no going out (for opposition), nor any Riser. He said: Then Abu’l-Hasan, peace be upon him, said to me: The narration is according to what Ubaid narrated, and not according to what Abdullah bin Bukair interpreted. Abu Abdillah, peace be upon him, only meant with his saying: «as long as the Heaven is calm» for the call with the name of your man, and with «as long as the earth is clam» for the army to sink.

Hadith.1371 - A man came to Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) and complained to him about his dire need, exaggerating his complaint until it seemed as though he was on the brink of starvation.

Abu Abdullah (as) turned to his companions and said: "The one who claims to pray at night but goes hungry during the day is lying. Indeed, Allah (swt), Blessed and Exalted, has guaranteed the sustenance of the day for those who perform the night prayer."
