💠 A poignant saying from Imam Sadiq (AS):
📽 "The world is like the sea water."
Imam Sadiq (AS) said: "The world is like the sea water; the more one drinks from the sea water, the more thirsty he becomes." No matter how much one consumes from the sea water, the thirst only increases. Don't think like this: "Let me just grab a handful of worldly wealth, then I'll turn away from it, I'll achieve worldly status and then turn towards God."
It doesn't work that way; the more you acquire from the wealth of this world, from the status and positions of this transient world, the more your thirst and greed for the next level increases. Because "the world is like the sea water," "the love of the world is the source of every sin."
📚 "Sparks", Martyr Ayatollah Sayyid Mohammad Baqir Sadr, Page 44
🏴 Condolences on the anniversary of the martyrdom of Imam Ja'far Sadiq (AS) to you.
