One Hundred And Fifty Lessons For Life

Lesson One Hundred Seven: Do Not Sever All Relations With God

Imam As-Sadiq (a.s.) said:

Translation

Be god-fearing and fear although it may be little, and maintain a curtain between yourself and Him, although it may be thin.[^1]

Brief Description

There are some people who sever all relations between themselves and God . They burn all bridges behind them and close all doors for their return to God as they proceed along the path of sins and mistakes.

Imam As-Sadiq (a.s.), in this pearl of wisdom, advises us not to do that and to maintain a link however flimsy so that one can return one day and find an open door to enter for repentance.
