wise sayings from Imam Ja'far ibn Mohamad Al-Sadiq

Imam Ja'far ibn Mohammad Al-Sadiq (as) said:
(to one of his companions)
“Verily we are very patient and our Shia’s are even more patient than us.” His companion asked, “May I be your ransom, how can your Shia be more patient than yourselves?” He replied, “Because we are patient alongside our knowledge [of everything], whereas our Shia’s are patient in spite of not knowing.’

Imām Ja'far ibn Muhammad al-Sādiq (AS) said:

‘A charitable act that Allah almighty loves indeed is reconciling people when they have become estranged to one another, and bringing them close together when they have become distanced from each other.’
[Reference: Usool-e-Kaafi, vol. 2, p. 209]


Imam Ja'far ibn Mohammad Al-Sadiq (as) said:

"Every invocation sought from Allah, Almighty and Glorious, is barred by the sky unless it is coupled with 'Salawat', benediction upon the Prophet and his progeny."
