Abdullah ibn Ziad narrated that he greeted Imam Sadiq (a.s) in Mena and then asked: “
O' grandson of the Prophet! We are a group of passers-by. We were unable to become your companions no matter how hard we tried. Please give us some advice.” The Imam (a.s) said: “I advise you to adhere to piety, honesty, trustworthiness, treating others with kindness, greeting, feeding the poor, praying in the mosques, visiting the ill, and attending funeral processions. My father told me: “Our followers were always the best people. If there was a jurisprudent, he was a Shiite. If there was a caller to prayer, a prayer leader, an orphan keeper, a trustworthy person, or a depositor, he was one of the Shiites. Now you be the same way, and make us loved by the people, not hated by them.”
عن عبد الله بن زياد قال
سلمنا على أبي عبد الله (عليه السلام) بمنى ثم قلت: يا بن رسول الله، إنا قوم مجتازون، لسنا نطيق هذا المجلس منك كلما أردناه، ولا نقدر عليه فأوصنا، قال: أوصيكم بتقوى الله، وصدق الحديث، وأداء الأمانة، وحسن الصحابة لمن صاحبكم، وإفشاء السلام، وإطعام الطعام، صلوا في مساجدهم، وعودوا مرضاهم، واتبعوا جنائزهم، فإن أبي حدثني إن شيعتنا أهل البيت كانوا خيار من كانوا منهم، إن كان فقيه كان منهم، وإن كان مؤذن كان منهم، وإن كان إمام كان منهم، وإن كان كافل يتيم كان منهم، وإن كان صاحب أمانة كان منهم، وإن كان صاحب وديعة كان منهم، فكذلك فكونوا، حببونا إلى الناس ولا تبغضونا إليهم.
