The
Holy Quran says:
It is He who has sent to the unlettered people an apostle from among themselves, reciting
to them and teaching them the Book and wisdom, although they were before in manifest
error. (Qur'an, 62:2)
Imam Ali (a.s.) in
Nahjul-Balagha says:
"The foremost in religion is the
knowing of Him, the perfection of knowing Him is to believe in His Oneness, and the
perfection of believing in His Oneness is to be sincere to Him."
Imam
al-Sadiq instructed one of his companions:
"I advise you to fear Allah, to be
pious, to be truthful, to pay your trusts, to be good to your neighbours and to be
frequent in your prostration (prayers). Such were the orders of Muhammad (s.a.w.) to
us."
The Holy Quran
says:
"And say to the believing women that
they lower their gaze and guard their private parts and do not display their adornment
save what is apparent of it; and let them wear their head-coverings over their
bosoms..." Holy Qur'an (24:31) |
