☯A Little knowledge is better than a great amount of prayer.
Worshipping God suffices to show one’s knowledge and selfish judgment is enough to show one's ignorance. People are two groups: the faithful and the ignorant. Do not annoy the believer and do not be a company to the one who doesn’t care about religious values.

🏵قال رسول اللہ ﷺ:
☯قَلِيْلُ الفِقْهِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ كَثِيْرِ العِبَادَةِ، وَكَفَى بِالمَرْءِ فِقْهَاً اِذا عَبَدَ اللَّهَ. وَكَفَى بِالْمَرْءِ جَهْلاً اِذا أعْجَبَ بِرَأْيِهِ. وَإنَّمَا النَّاسُ رَجُلانِ: مُؤْمِنٌ وَجَاهِلٌ، فَلا تُوْذِ المُؤْمِنَ، وَلا تُجَاوِزِ الجَاهِلَ.

🏵رسول گرامي اسلام ﷺ فرمود:
☯اندكى دانش بهتر از عبادت بسيار دانش مرد همين بس كه خدا را پرستد وناداني مرد همين بس كه دلبسته رأى خويش باشد ، مردم دو گونه‌اند مؤمن وجاهل ، مؤمن را ميازار وبر جاهل تعدى مكن


🏵رسول گرامی ﷺ فرماتے ہیں:
☯فقہ کم جاننے والا، زیادہ عبادت کرنے والے سے بہتر ہے۔ فقہ جاننے والے کے لیے اگر وہ پروردگار کی عبادت کرتا ہے تو اتنا کافی ہے (کہ وہ فقہ جانتا ہے)۔ لیکن انسان کے جاہل ہونے کے کیے اتنا ہی کافی ہے کہ وہ ہمیشہ اپنی نظر کو صحیح اور درست سمجھتا ہو۔
لوگ دو طرح کے ہیں؛ مومن اور جاہل، مومن کو کبھی اذیت نہ کرو اور دینی اقدار کے نہ جاننے والے کے پاس سے بھی نہ گزرو۔

Question to Allahmah Tabatabai: What is perfect repentance? What is true knowledge?

Answer: Perfect repentance is not possible for everyone, since it is to turn to God's might and glory (Izzah) which amounts to the servant's self restraint. Due to his absolute might, God doesn't like any creature to say "I" and be arrogant before Him. A repentant person is supposed to attain a stage where he sees nobody besides God, not even himself. Similarly, divine knowlegde may not be attained without having reached the stage of "izzah". This is reflected in the supplications for the month of Sha'baan (know as Monajaat e Sha'baniyah), narrated from the infallible imams: "Admit me to the bright light of Your glory, so that I may know You and turn away from whatever is besides You". That is, so that I may turn away from whatever is besides You and not see anything but You.

clearly illustrated how to perform it for us and how many rak’ats each prayer should be. b) Zakat. In the Qur’an, zakat has only been mentioned as an Islamic ruling. It was the Prophet who expressed which things have zakat and what the criteria for zakat becoming wajib for each one is. c) Hajj. The Qur’an says that Hajj is wajib and no more, but the Prophet has explained how it is supposed to be performed.

Therefore, it is wrong to expect to be able to find every detail in the Qur’an. So it is a big mistake not to follow the imams just because of the fact that none of their names have come in the Qur’an. That’s why no one says that noon prayers (which are 4 rak’ats) have to be prayed 2 rak’ats just because the Qur’an hasn’t mentioned how many rak’ats each prayer is.

2- In issues like this, in which there are big chances that others will disagree, it is much better for the Qur’an to express the truth implicitly rather than explicitly, otherwise there is a high possibility that they will end up denying the Qur’an as a whole. It’s very obvious that such a problem isn’t to the benefit of the Muslim ummah. Of course, the Qur’an says: “Surely we have revealed the Reminder (the Qur’an), and We will most surely be its guardian” [11], but one should remember that one of the ways of protecting the Qur’an and not letting others falsify or change it, is for it to speak in a way that others (such as the hypocrites who show that they are Muslims on the outside even though they aren’t within) don’t get sensitive and provoked. In this way, the high respect and value of the Qur’an will be kept, and certain individuals won’t think of changing or falsifying it in a way that will comply with their personal desires and wicked goals or just because they disagree with something. [12]

Shahid Ayatollah Motahhari answers this question in the following way. He says: “The answer to the question that why hasn’t Imam Ali’s khilafah and imamat been mentioned in the Qur’an, is that 1- The Qur’an usually expresses general laws. 2- The Prophet or Allah didn’t want such an issue in which people are sensitive about and prefer their own desires (to what Islam wants), to be presented explicitly, and although it wasn’t, people still went against it and falsely interpreted the Prophet’s sayings to their own benefit. In other words even if the Qur’an had clearly stated that Ali is successor to the Prophet they still would have found a way around it. The Prophet said: (Ali is his Mawla). How much more clear can one get? (Yet they interpreted what he said falsely and according to their will.)Yet there is a big difference between ignoring what the Prophet has said after him passing away regardless of all of its clarity and ignoring what the Qur’an has been completely clear about one day after his demise. That is why I have narrated in my book “Khilafah and Wilayah” that once during Imam Ali’s reign, a Jew wanted to attack and criticize the Muslim ummah for undesirable events that took place in the beginning of Islam. He told Imam Ali (and of course what he said really was a negative point) that you (the Muslim ummah) started quarreling over your prophet even before completely burying him after his death. Imam Ali answered: We argued about what he had instructed, not over the Prophet himself, but you (meaning the Jews) disregarded the most important principle of your religion which is tawhid (oneness of God), and asked your prophet to build an idol for you to worship. So there is a big difference between you and us; we didn’t argue about our prophet, we argued about what the interpretation of his saying was (and what he wanted us to do after his death). These two vary tremendously. (Motahhari goes on to say that) there is a big difference between saying that the people back then had misunderstood what the Prophet had said and saying that the Muslims back then rejected what the Qur’an had clearly stated or had falsified it.[13]

So one can say that the main reason behind not mentioning the names of the imams, or at least Imam Ali’s name, is the protection of the

🔊Emam Khomeini:

📍“We still haven’t begun journeying. 80 years of our life has passed, but still we haven’t begun.

📍We haven’t migrated yet. We became anchored to this worldly life, and seems to be the case till the end.

📍We have to start the journey. There’s no other way. You, the youth can find this path (of journeying) better. We have aged, our abilities and strengths have withered. You can better self-refine yourselves.

📍You are nearer to the Divine Kingdom than us old ones. The roots of corruption are less in you (youth). Its extensions have decreased. It hasn’t developed.

📍Each day we wait, chances of our development will decrease. Each day we delay and postpone, it gets harder.

📍For an old man it is very difficult to be reformed, however, it’s much easier for a youth. A thousand youth can become reformed and one elder can’t.

📍Don’t postpone for the days when you have aged. Now that you’re young, start your journey, and try your best now.

📍Align yourselves with the teachings of the prophets. That is the the origin. You have to start from there. They’ve shown the path. We do not know the way, they do.

📍They’re the healers, they know the way, the way of well-being. They’ve told it to us. They know. If you want to be preserved and well, you must walk their path.

📍All this attentiveness to our worldly desires, ego, and selfishness should be eliminated. Of course, It will not be an overnight transformation, rather it will take time and require step by step consistency.

📍All of our ambitions and aspirations shall soon be buried underground, annihilated. All this extra attention to our worldly wants and desires will end up against us (and is perishing along with us as we age day by day).

✅Only that will remain which is associated with God.”
