Imam Sadiq (a.s) quoted on the authority of his noble father
“There is no believer without two lights in his heart: The light of fear and the light of hope. If you weigh each one, it will not outweigh the other one.”
ثم قال أبو عبد الله (عليه السلام): كان أبي يقول: إنه ليس من عبد مؤمن إلا وفي قلبه نوران: نور رجاء ونور خوف، لو وزن هذا لم يزد على هذا، ولو وزن هذا لم يزد على هذا.
