Imam Sadiq (a.s) was questioned about abstinence in this world. He said: “It implies abstaining from the lawful for fear of reckoning, and abstaining from the forbidden for fear of punishment.”
سئل الصادق (عليه السلام) عن الزهد في الدنيا، قال: الذي يترك حلالها مخافة حسابه، ويترك حرامها مخافة عذابه.
