traduza o texto completo e perfeitamente para o português ABOUT GOOD MORALS
It is authentically narrated from Imam Mohammed Baqir (a.s) that the
Faith of such momins is perfect who have excellent morals.
The Prophet of Islam (a.s) says, “On the Day of Judgement nothing
would be rated better than the good behavior of the people.”
It is narrated from Imam Jafar e Sadiq (a.s) that in the eyes of Allah no
action of a person is more acceptable than making others one’s followers
through good behavior.
In another tradition it is mentioned that good moral behavior takes
one to the status of the person who had fasted all his life and offered
prayers late into the nights.
It is narrated from the Prophet of Islam (a.s), “The major cause of my
people achieving Heaven will be abstention from things termed taboo by
Allah and adopting piety and good behavior.”
Imam Jafar e Sadiq (a.s) has said that good moral behavior melts away
sins like the rays of sunlight melt the snow.
He further said that doing good to fellowbeings and living amicably
amongst the people, keeping the dwellings inhabited enhances
longevity.
In another tradition he said that good behavior is a Gift from Allah.
There are certain traits of behavior that are hereditary and there are certain others that are cultivated by the person. The narrator asked,’ Ya
Hazrat! Which is better of the two?’ The Imam (a.s) replied, ‘The traits
that are there in the person from birth that they are the fortunate ones
whom Allah has endowed with these good traits and he cannot act contrary to these. One who adopts good traits by practice has to control his
mind and actions as a penance to gain the Pleasure of Allah! There is
much reward for such effort!’
In another tradition that Allah give reward equal to that of Jehad to
creatures who behave well with their fellow-beings.
It is narrated from Imam Jafar e Sadiq (a.s) that one day the Prophet
(a.s) was in the mosque when a slave-girl of one of the Ansar came and
caught hold of the lapel of his robe. The Prophet (a.s) stood up with the
thought that the girl wished to say something. But the girl remained
mum. She acted similarly three times. When the Prophet (a.s) rose a
fourth time, the slave-girl cut away a corner of his robe. The companions
were upset at the impertinence of the girl.and said,’ O girl! Why did you
trouble the Prophet (a.s)?’ She said,’ There is a sick person at our place.
My master has asked me to fetch a small piece of the Prophet’s raiment
452that with it’s aura the ailing person would get well. Whenever I tried to
clip a piece of the raiment, the Prophet (a.s) rose and I felt shy of doing
the task. Alas! In the fourth attempt I took courage in my hands and am
going home with the clipping in my hand!’
453DISCOURTESY
It is narrated from Imam Jafar e Sadiq (a.s) that illtemper and bad manners spoil faith and neutralize the good deeds of a person the way vinegar spoils the honey.
The Imam (a.s) also said that the penitence and repentence of an illmannered person is not accepted because while he is repentant of one
bad deed, he perpetuates another through his misbehavior!
The Imam (a.s) added that a momin has always to be good mannered,
soft spoken and of amiable disposition. An infidel, to the contrary, is ill
tempered and harsh in his behavior.
Someone asked the Prophet (a.s), ‘Ya Hazrat! What is the guage of
good behavior?’ The Prophet replied,’ Keep your temperament soft that
no one feels hurt from your attitude. Adopt soft and sweet language that
pleases others. When you meet your momin brothers, meet them with
warmth and pleasantness!’
Hazrat Ameer al Momineen (a.s) has said,’ If you cannot please all the
people in the world with your wealth, then make them your friends with
yuour good behavior and temperament!’
It is narrated from Imam Jafar e Sadiq (a.s) that when the Prophet (a.s)
got the news of the death of Saad bin Maaz Ansari, he proceeded along
with the companions to join the funeral procession. He stood near Saad
while he was given the ritual final bath. When the bath was over, he accompanied the bier without footwear and bare-head as is the custom of
the mourners. He sometimes carried the bier on his right shoulder and at
other on his left. On reaching the graveside, the Prophet (a.s) himself
descended into the pit and with his own hands lowered Saad into the
grave. Then he arranged the bricks in the grave and put soil to fill the
grave. While putting soil into the grave the Prophet (a.s) said, ‘Saad’s
mortal remains will get lost in the soil but Allah likes that the deeds one
does are good and durable!’ When the Prophet (a.s) was giving the last
touches to the grave of Saad, the dead companion’s mother cried,’ O
Saad! Greetings on your achieving the Heaven!’ The Prophet said, ‘O
mother of Saad! Keep quiet! At the moment Saad is undergoing the pressures (Fishaar) of the grave!’ When the Prophet returned from the graveyard, the companions asked him,’ Ya Hazrat! The way you have attended Saad’s funeral, we have not seen you do any time in the past. You
went bare-footed. You kept your head uncovered.’ He replied,’ I saw the
angels do likewise and I followed suit.The companions asked,’ Sometimes you carried the bier on your right shoulder and at others on the
454left?’ The Prophet replied,’ I was with Jibrael, whichever side he went, I
went the same way!’ The companions asked, ‘You have yourself given
bath to Saad, led the funeral prayer, lowered him into the grave and in
the end said that he was undergoing the Fishaar of the grave!’ The Prophet replied, ‘Saad was undergoing the Fishaar because he used to treat the
people of his house and friends with ill-temper.’
It is narrated that the Prophet (a.s) has said, ‘Two traits should not be
there in Muslims, the first is miserliness and the other bad temper.’ The
Prophet said,’ O Abu Dharr! The sign of a momin is that he is good
mannered. An ill- tempered person is never a friend of Allah! A good
mannered momin is far better than the pious person who is rude to other
fellow beings.
The Prophet of Islam(a.s) has said,’ Good manners are the pleasant behavior of a momin towards others by way of warmth in looks and talk.
He offers help to a brother momin in times of need and profers gifts on
him that please him!’ The Prophet (a.s) added, ‘O Abu Dharr! A good
and clean word is a sort of charity. If the word has benefited a momin, the
one who uttered it would get rewarded!’ The Prophet (a.s) said, ‘O Abu
Dharr! Going to a mosque and sitting there is futile unless one does these
three things: Offers prayers, recites the Quran and teaches or learns the
things about religious rites.’’ O abu Dharr! Allah is not limited to time
and space! He doesn’t need any house! Hypocrites are those who say
that He is everything while everything is the reflection of Hiss Intrinsic
Traits (Sifaat e Kamaliah). One can only imagine His Greatness looking at
things around oneself. The Kaaba, constructed out of bricks and mortar,
which has neither gold nor precious stones embedded in it, is the place
of prostration for the monarchs and the populace. The old and dilapidated mosques resembling the Kaabah are so much revered that even the
rugged mats in them are better than the the tributes of Ceaser and
Qaqaan. Of all the benefits derived from the mosques, the one most valuable is that they are the places for congregations of the Muslims. These
are the places where people t gather and exchange greetings and news
about each other.’
