famous supplications are well known as "Sahifeye Sajjadieh." About three decades of the Imam's life were devoted to the revival of spiritualism in the society. This book is one of his most outstanding teachings. It is a master document on Islamic human rights, which not only cover human rights, but they also include the rights of God, our parts, and our deeds. To any intelligent reader who ponders deeply about the contents of this valuable document on rights, it immediately becomes clear that Islam has already established the first document on rights nearly fourteen centuries ago. But unfortunately in our modern world there are those who claim to respect human rights but they do so only superficially.
RESPECT EVERYONE'S RIGHTS
You should respect everyone's right
Be they old, young or full of might,
Be they for you an adversary
Or if they ever made you happy
The biggest right is that of God's
You should obey him and no other gods
Our body parts too have certain rights
Such as not viewing forbidden sights
Our relatives have many rights
Be it our parents, brothers or our wives
There are also rights for our deeds
Be it charity, supplications or holy feeds
All people have certain rights
Be they our teachers, or citizens nation-wide
