I am he for whom everything in this world is created. therefore my value exceeds anything that exists here, otherwise, they wouldn't have been created for me.

Place importance on worldly blessings and ranks, but do not have any attachment to Them. Instead, create in your heart an attachment to and reverence for God and your heavenly family. Because these are the only things that can bring you true and lasting happiness.

During a Ramadan, a couple of youth saw an old man eating something away from the eyes of the crowd.
They told him, "Hey old man, aren't you fasting?"
"Yes I am, I just eat and drink" - the old man replied
The youth laughed and said; "O really?!"
The old man answered:
"Yes, I don't lie, don't gaze at people, don't ridicule people, don't curse people, don't harass people, don't feel envy toward people, ...
but, since I have a disease that requires me to eat, my stomach alone is not fasting."
Then, addressing those youth, he asked
"So, are you guys fasting too?!"
Embarrassed, one of the youth looked at the ground and said:
"No, we just don't eat and drink!"
True fasting is when in addition to not eating and drinking, the person keeps himself from sinning during the time, and that is the main ingredient of having a true and accepted fasting

Palestine will definitely be liberated and returned to its people: Imam Khamenei
The issue of Gaza is not the issue of a small piece of land. The issue of Palestine is not only a geographical issue. It is the issue of humanity and human principles. Today, the issue of Palestine is a dividing line between commitment and hostility to human principles. This issue has such significance.

Are we really fasting?!
The prophet of islam, Muhammad(s), saw a woman who was cursing her handmaiden.
He brought some food and told her to eat the food.
The woman said: "I am fasting!"
The prophet said: " How can you be fasting, while you have cursed your handmaiden?! Indeed how few are the true fasters, and how many are those whose portion is nothing but mere hunger"
Fasting is more that just abstaining from eatting and drinking for a set amount of time.

God has put a limit on everything which would be dangerous for the person if he tries to cross it (for example, sugar and oil intake, doing exercise ... ). the only exception to this is His remembrance and love, which the more the person indulges in, the better.

Every good deed is a charity
The Prophet Muhammad (s) said: It is mandatory for every Muslim to give charity every day.
He was asked: "What if the person has no money to give away for charity?"
The Prophet answered:
โ Removing harmful obstacles from the roads is a charity.
โ Showing someone the way is charity.
โ Visiting the patients is a charity.
โ Bidding what is right is a charity.
โ Forbidding what is wrong is a charity.
โ Answering someone's greeting is a charity.

Ayatollah Bahjat was asked:
What should we do to get rid of our (physical and spiritual) illnesses?
He said:
"God Almighty has created a capsule in which all the cures exist
and that is sending Salawat upon the Prophet and his household"

Backbiting destroys one's good deeds
The Prophet Muhammad (s) said:
"On the Day of Resurrection a person is brought in front of the Lord for questioning, and he is given his record of deeds; He looks at it and cannot find his good deeds written in it.
He says: "O God! This is not my record! Because I cannot see my good deeds here!"
He is said: "Your Lord neither does wrong nor forgets; Your good deeds have been ruined as the result of your backbiting other people."
Then someone else is brought before God and he is given his records of deeds as well.
He looks at it and sees a lot of good deeds written in it!
He says: "O Lord! This is not my paper, because I have not done any of these!"
He is answered: "Such and such a person has backbitten you, so his good deeds are given to you in return!"
โผ๏ธโผ๏ธโผ๏ธ
Ayatullah Mojtahedi:
Someone who wants to abandon the habit of backbiting should first remove its cause in himself, which is envy. Secondly, he should read the verses and hadiths which talk against backbiting in order to see how terrible of a sin that is."
It is said in hadiths that: "Giving one Dirham to others for usury is 36 times worse than committing adultery", while backbiting is even worse than that.
It is because usury disrupts the economy of the society, while backbiting targets people's reputation and honour; And in the words of God, "Sanctity of believers is greater than that of Ka'aba"

Ethical recommendations of Ayatollah Bahjat
When you wake up in the morning, politely stand up and begin your morning by greeting Imam Mahdi
Say, "O Imam Mahdi, I beg you, help me"
When you want to sleep at night, first place your hand on your chest and say
Peace be upon you O Imam Mahdi
And then sleep
Before doing anything, request the assistance of Imam Mahdi by saying "O Imam Mahdi ..."
Spend your days and nights, by having the thought of him in your mind
because if you do this
Satan will no longer have a place in your life
You will no longer be able to sin
You will be under the protection of Imam Mahdi at all times
And Amir al-Muminin Imam Ali has said that:
"During the time of Occultation,
only those who have the spirit of certainty and have closeness with their Imam will remain steadfast in their religion."

The West mistakenly ascribes the Magna Carta as the 'first' charter of rights. It was in 1215 CE that English Landlords forced King John to put his signature on it - 600 years after Islam had established rights.
Today the politicians of the World claim to adopt the Charter of Human Rights adopted by the U.N.O. in 1948 but it is a well known fact that when the rights are not to their advantage, the very charter becomes a Charter of Human Injustice.
Imam Ali ibn Husaynsโ Treatise on Rights is a master document on Islamic human rights, which not only covers human rights, but also includes the rights of God, our body parts, and our deeds. To any intelligent reader who ponders deeply about the contents of this valuable document on rights, it immediately becomes clear that Islam has already established the first document on rights nearly fourteen centuries ago.
this charter is the only work attributed to Ali ibn Husayn (a) other than supplications or relatively short sayings and letters. Imam Ali ibn Husayn was the fourth Shia Imam, after his father Husayn ibn Ali, his uncle Hasan ibn Ali, and his grandfather Ali ibn Abi Talib. The โTreatise on Rightsโ seems to have been written at the request of a disciple, since, in one of its two versions, it is prefaced by the words: โThis is the treatise of Ali ibn al-Husayn to one of his companions.โ
