كَانَ أَبِي ع يَقُولُ مَا يُعْبَأُ بِمَنْ يَؤُمُّ هَذَا الْبَيْتَ[3] إِذَا لَمْ يَكُنْ فِيهِ ثَلَاثُ خِصَالٍ خُلُقٌ يُخَالِقُ بِهِ مَنْ صَحِبَهُ وَ حِلْمٌ يَمْلِكُ بِهِ غَضَبَهُ وَ وَرَعٌ يَحْجُزُهُ عَنْ مَحَارِمِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ.
"My father (as) used to say: 'There is no regard for the one who visits this House (the Ka'bah) if they do not possess three qualities: good character to interact with those they accompany, forbearance to control their anger, and piety to refrain from what Allah (swt), the Mighty and Glorious, has forbidden.'"
لَيْسَ مِنَ الْمُرُوءَةِ أَنْ يُحَدِّثَ الرَّجُلُ بِمَا يَلْقَى فِي السَّفَرِ مِنْ خَيْرٍ أَوْ شَرٍّ[4]
أُوصِيكَ بِتَقْوَى اللَّهِ وَ أَدَاءِ الْأَمَانَةِ وَ صِدْقِ الْحَدِيثِ وَ حُسْنِ الصُّحْبَةِ لِمَنْ صَحِبَكَ وَ لا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ
"Abu Abdullah (as) advised me, saying: 'I advise you to fear Allah (swt), fulfill trusts, speak truthfully, and maintain good companionship with those who accompany you. There is no power except with Allah (swt).'"
وَ رَوَى مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع قَالَ مَنْ خَالَطْتَ فَإِنِ اسْتَطَعْتَ أَنْ يَكُونَ يَدُكَ الْعُلْيَا عَلَيْهِ[1] فَافْعَلْ.
"Whoever you associate with, if you are able to ensure that your hand is above theirs (in generosity and giving), then do so."
أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع وَدِّعُوا أَخَاكُمْ فَإِنَّهُ لَا بُدَّ لِلشَّاخِصِ[3] أَنْ يَمْضِيَ وَ لِلْمُشَيِّعِ مِنْ أَنْ يَرْجِعَ فَتَكَلَّمَ كُلُّ رَجُلٍ مِنْهُمْ عَلَى حِيَالِهِ[4] فَقَالَ الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ ع رَحِمَكَ اللَّهُ يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ إِنَّ الْقَوْمَ إِنَّمَا امْتَهَنُوكَ بِالْبَلَاءِ[5] لِأَنَّكَ مَنَعْتَهُمْ دِينَكَ فَمَنَعُوكَ دُنْيَاهُمْ فَمَا أَحْوَجَكَ غَداً إِلَى مَا مَنَعْتَهُمْ وَ أَغْنَاكَ
