Maula Ali (as) Advice To Kumail ----- Part 9


Part 9
......O Kumail! The point of praying, fasting, and giving charity is not the physical action; it is to do them with a pure heart and with true sincerity while bearing the rules of Fiqh in mind in such a way that Allah (s.w.t.)  accepts your deeds.

O Kumail! When you are in Ruku’, Sujood, or performing the rest of the actions required in SALAAT (prayer), not only should your heart be focused and devoted to Allah (s.w.t.), but even your joints and your veins need to have the same focus and devotion. And this should apply to all of your prayers.

O Kumail! Pay attention to the clothes in which you pray and the place in which you pray because if they do not meet the conditions (of prayer), your prayer will not be accepted.

O Kumail! The tongue reveals that which is in the heart, and the heart survives on food. So watch what you feed your heart and your body, because if your food is not Halaal Allah  (s.w.t.) will not accept your praise and glorification.

O Kumail! Listen and understand that we do not allow breach of trust. Those who tell you otherwise are not speaking the truth and have committed a sin and deserve Hell for their lie.

I swear that I heard the Prophets (s.a.w.w.) repeat this three times an hour before his death, “OAbal-Hasan! Do not breech the trust of the pious nor the immoral in the greatest or the smallest things, even if it is a thread.”
