Imam al-Sadiq (AS) said, ‘O Aabd al-Aala, … give my greetings of peace and the mercy of Allah to my Shiaa, and tell them: ‘Allah has mercy on the servant who incites love in the people towards himself and towards us [when attracting them towards Islam], by displaying to them that which they already like, and keeping from them that which they would reject.
الإمامُ الصّادقُ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) ـ لعبد الأعلى ـ: يا عبدَ الأعلَى ... فَأقرِئهُمُ السلامَ ورَحمَةَ اللّهِ ـ يَعنِي الشِّيعَةَ ـ وقُل: قالَ لَكُم: رَحِمَ اللّهُ عَبداً استَجَرَّ مَوَدَّةَ الناسِ إلى نفسِهِ وإلَينا ، بأن يُظهِرَ لَهُم ما يَعرِفُونَ ويَكُفَّ عَنهُم ما يُنكِرُونَ.
