purification for you from polytheism. He made: Prayer - An exaltation for you from conceit. Alms - A purification for the soul and a (cause of)
growth in subsistence. Fasting - An implantation of devotion. Pilgrimage - A construction of religion. Justice - A harmony of the hearts. Obeying us (Ahlul-Bayt) Management
of the nation. Our leadership (Ahlul-Bayt).
Safeguard from disunity. Jihad (struggle) - A strengthening of Islam. Patience - A helping course for deserving (divine) reward. Ordering goodness (Amr Bi Maruf) Public welfare. Kindness to the parents - A safeguard from wrath. Maintaining close relations with one's kin-A cause for a longer life and
multiplying the number of descendants. Retaliation (Qesas) -For sparing
blood (souls). Fulfillment of vows - subjecting oneself to mercy. Completion of weights and measures - A cause for preventing
the neglect of others' rights. Forbiddance of drinking wine - An exaltation from
atrocity. Avoiding slander - A veil from curse. Abandoning theft-a reason for deserveing
chastity. Allah has also prohibited polytheism so that one can devote himself to His
Lordship. Therefore; Fear Allah as He should be feared, and die not except in a state of Islam; Obey Allah in that which He has commanded you to do and that which He has
forbidden, for surely those truly fear among His servants, who have knowledge.
