There are people who worship Allah to gain His Favors, this is the worship of traders; while there are some who worship Him to keep themselves free from His Wrath, this is the worship of slaves; a few who obey Him out’ of their sense of gratitude and obligations, this is the worship of free and noble men.

Imām `Alī ibn Husayn (A.S.) said:
"One who cries for Imam Husain (a.s.) and his tears flow from the eyes and fall on his cheeks Almighty Allah would give him a place on a high apartment where he would live in peace for years. One who cries on the troubles given to us by our enemies in this world and his tears fall on his cheeks, the Almighty Allah would grant him a place in Maqam-e-Sidq. If a believer bears difficulties and becomes aggrieved for the calamities, which we have suffered, his eyes become wet, tears flow on cheeks, Allah would remove sufferings from his face and keep him safe from difficulties and chastisement on the Day of Judgement." !!

The paradise is desirous for four persons:
1. One, who feeds the hungry.
2. One, who guards the tongue.
3. One, who recites the Quran.
4. One, who fasts the in the month of Ramadhan.
Imam Redha (peace be upon him) has said:
If someone asks, "Why is it that the fasts were made obligatory extensively in the month of Ramadhan and not in the other months?" it should be said, "(this is) because the month of Ramadhan is the month in which Allah, The Exalted, had revealed the Qur’an."
"O’ people do compete in good deeds and haste in grabbing the good chances.
By delaying good deeds , you reduce their value. By gaining victory win the
respect and praise of others , and do not let others blame you for being lazy.
If one does a favour to another but he does not thank him for it , be sure that
God will reward him instead , and surely God’s reward is greater and more
generous."
