20ـ رسولُ اللهِِ (صَلَّيَ اللهُ عَلَيهِ وَ آلِهِ): مَن رَأى مِنكُم مُنكَراً فَلْيُغَيِّرْهُ بِيَدِهِ ، فإن لَم يَستَطِعْ فبِلِسانِهِ ، فإن لَم يَستَطِعْ فبِقَلبِهِ وذلكَ أضعَفُ الإيمانِ. |
| 20– The Prophet (SAWA) said, ‘He who sees wrong being done should redress the situation with his own hand, and if he cannot do so then with his tongue, and if he cannot do so then with his heart [disapproving the act], and that is the weakest level of faith.’[al-Targhib wa al-Tarhib, v. 3, p. 223, no. 1] |
|
21ـ رسولُ اللهِ (صَلَّيَ اللهُ عَلَيهِ وَ آلِهِ): ألا لا يَمنَعَنَّ أحَدَكُم هَيبَةُ النّاسِ أن يَقولَ الحَقَّ إذا رَآهُ أن يَذَّكَّرَ بِعِظَمِ اللّهِ ، لا يُقَرِّبُ مِن أجَلٍ ولا يُبعِدُ مِن رِزقٍ. |
| 21– The Prophet (SAWA) said, ‘Indeed fear of people must not prevent any of you from speaking the truth when he sees it fit to remind others of the grandeur of Allah, for neither will it [i.e. speaking the truth] hasten your destined end, nor will it ward off your decreed sustenance.’[Kanz al-`Ummal, no. 5570] |
|
22ـ الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): مَن تَرَكَ إنكارَ المُنكَرِ بقَلبِهِ ويَدِهِ ولِسانِهِ فهُوَ مَيِّتٌ بَينَ الأحياءِ. |
| 22– Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘He who abandons the prohibition of wrong with his heart, his hand and his tongue is a dead man walking amongst the living.’[al-Tahdhib, v. 6, p. 181, no. 374] |
|
23ـ الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): أمَرَنا رَسولُ اللّهِ (صَلَّيَ اللهُ عَلَيهِ وَ آلِهِ) أن نَلقى أهلَ المَعاصي بِوُجوهٍ مُكفَهِرَّةٍ. |
| 23– Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘The Prophet (SAWA) commanded us to meet the sinners with stern faces.’[al-Kafi, v. 5, p. 59, no. 10] |
|
24ـ الإمامُ الصّادقُ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): حَسبُ المُؤمِنِ عِزّاً إذا رَأى مُنكَراً أن يَعلَمَ اللّهُ عَزَّوجلَّ مِن قَلبِه إنكارَهُ . |
| 24– Imam al-Sadiq (AS) said, ‘It is honour indeed for a believer that when he sees wrong being done, Allah, Mighty and Exalted, knows his heart to have rejected it.’[al-Kafi, v. 5, p. 60, no. 1] |
