۞
Imam Ali (AS) said, Indeed the fear of Allah is a key to rightness, a store for the Hereafter, emancipation from every [form of] bondage and safety from every destruction. Through it the runaway is rescued, what is sought is attained and what is desired [of the Hereafter] is acquired.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : إنَّ تَقْوَى اللّهِ مِفْتاحُ سَداد وَ ذَخيرَةُ مَعاد وَ عِتْقٌ مِنْ كُلِّ مَلَكَة وَنَجاةٌ مِنْ كُلِّ هَلَكَة بِها يَنْجُو الهارِبُ وَ تُنْجَحُ المَطالِبُ وَتُنالُ الرَّغائِبُ
