Lessons from the Sermon of  Imam Ali (a) on Eid al-Fitr

April 2, 2025 / editor
Imam Ali (a) mentions the qualities of Allah (swt) that 
motivate a person to praise and glorify Him.
How could one ever lose hope in His mercy when it 
encompasses all things.” (Q7:156)? 
No individual is ever deprived of His bounty since human beings are constantly being showered by His blessings, both outward and known, as well as inward and hidden …” (Q31:20).

Ahadith on Death from Imam Ali (a)

April 2, 2025 / editor

 

The intelligent person is one 
who does not waste his [time and] energy in that which does not benefit him, and does not [strive to] acquire that which will 
not accompany him [after his death]. (H. 6718)
Verily when Allah, the Glorified, wishes good for a 
servant, He grants him success in spending his lifetime doing the best deeds and blesses him with the ability to quickly use his available time to perform acts of worship, before [the coming of] his death. (H.10597)
One who is certain of the [eventual] departure [from this world] prepares for the journey. (H.9533)

The Transience of this World and Salience of the Hereafter

January 18, 2025 / editor
Imam Ali (a) has said, “… Verily this world has turned back and announced its departure, and 
the Hereafter has come forward and its approach is visible. Indeed, today is the preparation and tomorrow is the race. The place to run to is Paradise while the end [for the loser] is Hell. ...” 
Proper repentance is the 
precondition for a pious life of virtue. A famous tradition beautifully states, “He who 
repents from sin is like one who has no sin,”
