💠 Greeting fellow Muslims
Imam Reza (as) said:
Whoever meets a poor Muslim and greets him differently from the way he would greet a rich person will meet God, the Almighty and Exalted, on the Day of Judgment, and He will be angry with him.
مَنْ لَقِيَ فَقِيراً مُسْلِماً فَسَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِ خِلَافَ سَلَامِهِ عَلَى الْغَنِيِّ لَقِيَ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَ هُوَ عَلَيْهِ غَضْبَانُ

💠 Quran Light
What is in the heavens and the earth is Allah’s; verily Allah is the Self-Sufficient, the Most Praised.
لِلَّـهِ ما فِي السَّماواتِ وَ الْأَرْضِ إِنَّ اللَّـهَ هُوَ الْغَنِيُّ الْحَمِيدُ
📖 Surah Luqman, Verse 26
⚜️Allah is All-Sufficient and is the Most Praised from any point of view, since every merit which is found in the world belongs to Allah, the Self-Sufficient, and whatever a person has is completely obtained from Him, and the sources of every goodness are in His authority, and this is a real evidence to His self-sufficiency.
In view of the fact that /hamd/ means praise for a good deed which a person does voluntarily, and whatever good thing we see in the world is from His side, then all praises belong to Him.
Even when we praise the beauty of a flower, and we explain the attraction of the heavenly loves, or we honour the greatness of the action of a self-sacrificing altruist, again we, in fact, praise Him, because this beauty and that attraction and realness also belong to Him, therefore, He is All-Praised.

"When Sa'd b. 'Abdillah al-Qummi asked him the reason why people cannot elect an Imam for themselves, he replied, 'Would he be a righteous man or a corrupt man?' I said, 'Righteous.'
He said, 'Is it possible that the selected individual be actually corrupt, for no one really knows what passes through another's mind, in terms of their righteousness or corruption?' I said, 'Yes'. He said, 'That is the reason why.'”

💠 Sahifa Sajjadia Dua 14
O God, so bless Muhammad and his Household,
keep my wrongdoing enemy from wronging me through Your strength,
blunt his blade toward me through Your power, and assign to him
a diversion in that which is close to him and the inability to reach his enemy!
O God, bless Muhammad and his Household,
let the wrongdoer not find it easy to wrong me, give me good help against him,
preserve me from the like of his acts, and place me not in the like of his situation!
أللَّهُمَّ فَصَلِّ اللَّهُمَّ عَلَى مُحَمَّد وَآلِهِ
وَخُذْ ظَالِمِي وَعَدُوِّي عَنْ ظُلْمِي بِقُوَّتِكَ
وَافْلُلْ حَدَّهُ عَنِّي بِقُدْرَتِكَ وَاجْعَلْ لَهُ
شُغْلاً فِيَما يَلِيهِ وَعَجْزاً عَمَّا يُناوِيْهِ
أللَّهُمَّ وَصَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّد وَآلِهِ
وَلاَ تُسَوِّغْ لَهُ ظُلْمِي وَأَحْسِنْ عَلَيْـهِ عَوْنِي،
وَاعْصِمْنِي مِنْ مِثْـلِ أَفْعَالِهِ، وَلا تَجْعَلْنِي فِي مِثْلِ حَالِهِ.

💠 His Reappearance Would Happen Suddenly Like the Resurrection
Kamal al-Din: on the authority of Di‘bil b. ‘Ali Khuzai from Imam al-Reza (as):
" … My father related to me from his father from his forefathers that the Apostle of Allah was asked: O Apostle of Allah! When will the Riser from among your progeny appear? The Prophet (S) said,
"His story (Reappearance) is like that of the Resurrection, since, (none except Him shall manifest it at its time. It will weigh heavy on the heavens and the earth. It will not overtake you but suddenly.)"

💠 My God! My Lord! My Master! My Protector!
For which things would I complain to You?
And for which of them would I lament and weep?
For the pain and severity of chastisement?
Or for the length and period of tribulation?
So if You take me to the punishments with Your enemies,
And gather me with the people of Your tribulation
And separate me from Your friends and saints,
Then suppose, my God, my Master, my Protector
and my Lord that I am able to endure Your chastisement,
How can I endure separation from You?
