Advice of Imam Musa al-Kadhim (a)

February 3, 2025 / editor

O Hisham, beware of the
luxuries of this temporary world. It has been mentioned in Surah al-An’aam: “The life
of the world is nothing but play and diversion, and the abode of the Hereafter is surely
better for those who are God conscious. Why then don’t you use your intellect?” (Q6:32) If we use the life in this world as we ought to and accomplish the goals that Allah (swt) has
set for us, it becomes a
purposeful and meaningful life that helps us to reach eternal happiness in the Hereafter.

remembrance of Allah, whose faith increases when His revelations are recited to them, and who put their trust in their Lord. (Q8:2)

October 22, 2024 / editor

Allah has promised those who believe and do good [His] forgiveness and a great reward. (Q5:9)
Indeed, those in awe of their lord without
seeing Him will have forgiveness and
a mighty reward. (Q67:12)
Who is it that will lend to Allah a good loan which He will multiply [many times over] for them,
and they will have an honourable reward. (Q57:11)
Those who believe and do good will certainly
have a never-ending reward. (Q41:8)

Can we truly describe God?

September 25, 2024 / editor

No vision can encompass Him, but He encompasses all vision ... (Q6:103)
I replied, “Of course.” Then he asked: “Do you all know what
al-Absār are?” I replied, “Of course.” Then he asked: “What are they?” I replied, “They are Absār meaning ‘eyes’.” He said, “The mind in your heart is more powerful than the eyes [with which you see]. Thus it is minds that cannot behold him, while He
beholds minds.”
To guide Abu Hashim to the hidden meaning of the verse above, Imam al-Ridha (a) first asks him what he understands from the verse. It is worth mentioning that the word Absār here refers to ‘minds’ . Since ‘minds’ which are our most powerful faculty for knowing, cannot behold Him, thus, we cannot truly describe Him.
