A very interesting point to note is that in Du’a Makarim al Akhlaq, (Du’a 20 of Sahifa Sajjadiyya), Imam al-Sajjad (a) recites salawaat after every few verses. This shows us that if we want to improve our akhlaq, we must learn from the Holy Prophet (saww).
Imam Ali (a) is reported to have said, "Verily the friends of Allah are those who remember Him the most, are constantly grateful to Him and have greater patience in the face of His trials."
![Imam Ali al-Ridha (a) is reported to have said, “The best time for reciting the Holy Qur’an is after the completion of the Morning Prayer.”
Imam al-Baqir (a) is reported to have said, “There is a spring for everything, and the spring of the Qur’an is the Month of Ramadhan.” (Al-Kafi Vol. 2 Pg. 630)
Imam al-Sadiq (a) is reported to have said, “… Verily [the month of] Ramadhan has a special right and sanctity that the other months do not have. The Holy Qur’an is to be read in
a measured tone. When you come to a verse that mentions
Paradise, pause and ask Allah, the Mighty and Exalted, to grant you Paradise, and when you come to a verse that mentions
hellfire, then pause and seek refuge with Allah from the fire of hell.” (Al-Kafi. Vol. 2 Pg. 617)](https://enlighteninginspirations.ir/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/inspirations-1-791x1024.png)
![Imam al-Sadiq (a) is reported to have said, “ The pious ones are the shias of Imam Ali (a) and the unseen is Imam al-Mahdi (ajtf). The proof of these words is seen in the verse below:
They ask, “ Why has no [other] sign been sent down to him from his Lord?” Say, [O Prophet] The knowledge of the unseen is with Allah alone. So wait! I too am waiting with you.” (Q10:20)](https://enlighteninginspirations.ir/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/Imam-al-Mahdi-ajtf-in-the-Holy-Quran-1-791x1024.png)
