۞
God's Prophet (a.s) said: “God has divided the intellect into three parts. Whoever possesses all three is perfectly intelligent, but whoever lacks them lacks intelligence. They are: a thorough recognition of God, performance of one's duties to God, and good perseverance in carrying out God's commands.”
وقال (صلى الله عليه وآله): قسم الله العقل على ثلاثة أجزاء، فمن كانت فيه كمل عقله، ومن لم تكن فيه فلا عقل له: حسن المعرفة بالله، وحسن الطاعة له، وحسن الصبر على أمره.
