📷 Enclosed within Words
Our words are like doors and walls that we build around ourselves, and we enclose ourselves within them forever. Our words are sometimes like a ceiling that we build over our heads, a ceiling that may come down on us at any moment. Sometimes we build gardens around ourselves with our words, and both others and ourselves enjoy being within these gardens.

📷 The Way for God’s Special Grace to Open for Us
In order for the door of God’s Grace to open for us and for us to become mystics, we should wait behind the door for a while. We should sometimes knock on God’s door with tears and sometimes with a smile, which stems from the satisfaction of waiting, sometimes by constantly referring back to Him, and sometimes with insistence and begging. The door will open. They have promised us. Prayer is knocking on God’s door.

📷 The Way to Gain a Deep Vitality
In order to gain a deep vitality, two important events must take place in the thoughts and soul of a person. Firstly, he/she should accept the wisdom of the occurrence of common problems, even death. Secondly, a person should have a goal greater than death and life, which he/she loves and is hopeful about reaching so that he/she can be deeply happy.

📷 The One Who Removes Ambiguities
Not all of our assignments are clear, and in many cases, we are doubtful in recognizing our assignment. The most important action one can do to remove ambiguities is to do one’s clear assignments precisely.

📷 Let’s take notice of life’s traditions.
Life means moving in a path, which others have travelled, and repeating all the actions of people from the past whose time has finished or those who are around us and are traveling through their final stages. Seeing the traditions, which govern human beings’ lives and which are common and cannot be changed, causes us to not become greatly excited or saddened due to life’s events.

📷 A Happiness and Laughing, Which Are Enjoyable
Those who laugh to gain vitality are much less happy than those who laugh because they have vitality. One should gain enjoyable happiness and laughing from deep, inner vitality. Sometimes superficial laughing is able to eliminate some of the superficial sorrows. Nonetheless, a person cannot be deeply happy unless he/she has a deep vitality.

📷 There are different kinds of love.
Being in love and becoming emotional do not prevent a person from seeing reality and being balanced. It depends on what you love and why you have become emotional. If you are in love with the center of the universe, He will put you on the correct path with His attracting and repelling, which are in balance. It’s like the sun, which knows how to circle the earth around itself.

📷 Remembering the beloved is fun.
A person who is in love does not neglect remembering his/her beloved and does not get tired of remembering the beloved, because remembering the beloved is fun. If we think a lot about the enjoyment of having a loving relation with God, the way to it will open.

📷 The Sweet Taste of Closeness
We need to have the intention of “to get close to God” in each action. The prerequisite to this is deep understanding and abundant interest in “getting close.” However, we are unable to taste being close before getting close, and we do not understand the meaning of having the intention “to get close to God” before the sweet experience of getting close. Therefore, we have to guess what this sweetness is by thinking much about being close.

The more that media and the ease of accessing information increase, the more a person is forced to choose. This is very good. Making a good choice adds value to our awareness.

🔸Make this message universal!
🔻Many years ago, some female students went on a field trip to Qom. After returning, they filled in a participant’s questionnaire. One of them wrote something very special. When I read it at that time, it stuck in my mind.
🔻A young female university student wrote, “When I went to Hazrat Masumah’s (‘a) shrine, at one point I thought about this fact that the biggest and most honored shrine that we have for one of the offspring of an Imam in Iran, is the shrine of #Hazrat_Masumah (‘a). Very great scholars are very humble in front of her, and Hazrat Masumah was a #girl.
🔻When I saw the #honor that Islam and the Islamic scholars have for this young woman, my perspective changed about #Islam. Before this, I didn’t honor or value religiosity very much. However, I saw that there is really no difference between #men and #women in Islam in that if a girl is pious, educated, knowledgeable and spiritual, all the world of Islam will be humble in front of her.”
🔻You honorable people who today have the necessary tools and can reach out to the whole world, send a message to everyone. That message is that the greatest shrine after the shrines of the Imams (‘a), which Muslims honor, is the shrine of a young woman. The people of the world should know this so that no one will say, “We in the West #respect women; but Muslims don’t.”
🔻The religious authorities and great mystics like Ayatollah Bahjat, had bound themselves, [I stress this fact that] they had bound themselves to go to be in her presence, read the recommended supplications and say hello to her every day. A young woman has passed away and her luminous tomb is a place, which the Friends of God care about and pay special attention to!
🔻We thank God that we have a religion, which is not #discriminatory. Being female, male, small, or big is not important in our religion at all. The shrine of Hazrat Masumah (‘a) itself has many messages for the whole world.
🌸 Congratulations on the anniversary of the birth of Hazrat Fatimah Masumah (‘a), the daughter of Imam Musa bin Ja’far (‘a).

📷 Before Loving God
Loving God is not hard, but the introductory steps to it are hard. The introduction to loving God is to detach oneself from the world and others. The introduction to loving God is to forget about oneself and entrust one’s affairs to Him.
