Imam Sadiq (as) said “Indeed when the sin is committed by a servant secretly, it does not harm but the one who commits it. Where as, if it is committed openly and conspicuously and a restraint is not put upon it then it harms the general public.”[i]

[i] QARB UL ASNAD, P 26

Imam Sadiq (as) said “The person who moves to fulfill the need of his brother (in faith) is similar to the runner between Safa and Marwa. And the one who fulfills (materializes) his need is like the person who wallowed and rolled in to his (own) blood on the way and course of Allah, on the day of Badr and Uhud (battles).”[i]

[i] TUHFUL AQOOL, P 303

Imam Sadiq (as) said “The one who deals with the people and does not commit excess upon them, talks to them and does not tell lie, makes a promise and does not break it he is one of those whose slandering and backbiting is prohibited, his forbearance and fortitude is completed, his justice and equity is exhibited and evident, his brotherhood is obligatory and binding upon others.”[i]
