A True Shiah
AI-'Imam Muhammad al-Baqir (AS) once said to
one of his companions: "O Jabir
itis not enough that
a person says; !I am a Shi'ah
and I love the Prophet
(AS)
and the Prophet's
family and the Imams.
By
Allah, a Shiah is the one who is
perfectly pious and
obedient to Allah's commands.
Anyone
else is not a
Shiah no matter how much they say
they love Ali (AS)
and no matter what they call themselves.
"O Jabir Our Shi'ahs are known
by these signs:
(a) They are truthful, trustworthy
and loyal;
(b) They always remember Allah;
(c) They offer their prayers, observe
fasts, and recite
the Qur'an,
(d) They act nicely towards their
parents:
(e) They help their neighbors,
take care of orphans,
and say nothing but good of people;
(f) They are worthy of peoples
trust and confidence"
Jabir was listening attentively.
When the Imam (AS)
finished, he said: O
son of the Prophet (SA) among
the Muslims there are very few
who possess these qualities.
,.
The Imam replied:
Allah forbid you imagine that
just to claim to love
us is enough to be a Shiah.
No not at all.
A person
who says I love Ali (AS)'
but doesn't follow Ali (AS)
in his actions is not the Shiah
of Ali (AS).
Similarly.
if a person says I love the Prophet (SA)' but doesn't
follow the actions of the Prophet (SA), his claim will
be of no use to him!
"
"O
Jabir Our real friends and Shi'ahs are obedient
to the commands of Allah, and
everyone who is
disobedient to Allah is our
enemy
"O
Jabir Always be pious and chaste, and perform
good deeds so as to enjoy the
blessings of the Paradise.
Know that the best and most
honorable before Allah
are the pious and the chaste
".
