If you are wronged,do not commit wrong doing to others;

If you are betrayed ,do not betray anyone;

If you are called a liar, do not be furious;

If you are praised, do not be jubilant;

If you are criticized ,do not fret and think of what is said in

The Knowledge

Prophets…

Our followers are of three kinds

one who follows us but depends on others,

one who is like a glass involved in his own reflections,

the more they suffer the more they shine.

but the best are those who are like gold,

Imam Muhammad Baqir

He received the title of

“Baqir”

due to his ample

knowledge,

for he split open

knowledge,scrutinized and examined the depths of it.

Aba Hamza narrates that once Imam Baqir (PBUH) told him,

"O' Aba Hamza !Whenever one of you

intends to travel a distance, he searches for a proof and

a guide( so he doesn't lose track of

the path ;)and you, are less

knowledgeable to the paths of the sky than to the paths

of the earth. Thus, now find yourself a

proof and a guide( so you do not lose track

on the path toward Allah and the heavens.)
