Piety
First of all, I want to encourage you dears and myself to piety, which is the safe haven of Allah, his strong fortress and the provision of the Day of Judgment, that is to say "the best provision before the creator of people". I advise that piety should fill our hearts and become the essence of our souls, until that our life takes its hue from that:
«و من احسن من اللّه صبغة...»
"And who could give a better hue than God,"
Such piety makes all our demands purposeful, specifies our way of life and makes it clear and meaningful.
The piety which is the best wealth and honor of believer, what relates him to God and promotes him to the special rank of devotion, until he calls from the depths of his heart:
«الهى کفى بى عزّاً أن أکون لک عبداً و کفى بى فخراً أن تکون لى ربّا»
"O God! My best glory is to be your servant and my best honor is to have you as my lord"(1)
