Hadith.5868 - Safwan ibn Yahya narrated from Abu Al-Sabbah Al-Kinani, who said:
I asked Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq 
:
"Inform me about this statement, whose words are:
'I ask Allah (swt) for faith and piety, and I seek refuge in Allah (swt) from the evil consequences of matters.
Indeed, the most honorable speech is the remembrance of Allah (swt), the Exalted, and the pinnacle of wisdom is obedience to Him.
The most truthful speech, the most eloquent admonition, and the best of stories are found in the Book of Allah (swt).
The firmest bond is faith in Allah (swt).
The best of religions is the religion of Ibrahim, peace be upon him.
The best of traditions is the tradition of the prophets.
The best of guidance is the guidance of Muhammad ﷺ.
The best provision is piety.
The best knowledge is that which benefits.
The best guidance is that which is followed.
The best wealth is the wealth of the soul.
The best thing placed in the heart is certainty.
The adornment of speech is truthfulness.
The adornment of knowledge is benevolence.
The most honorable death is martyrdom.
The best of matters are those with favorable outcomes.
That which is little and sufficient is better than that which is abundant and distracting.
The truly unfortunate is the one who is doomed while still in his mother's womb.
The truly fortunate is the one who takes heed from others.
The wisest of the wise is the one who fears Allah (swt).
The most foolish of the foolish is the one who engages in wickedness.
The worst of narrations is falsehood.
The worst of matters are their innovations.
The worst blindness is the blindness of the heart.
The worst regret is regret on the Day of Judgment.
The greatest sinner in the sight of Allah (swt), the Exalted, is the lying tongue.
The worst earnings are those acquired through usury.
The worst food is that which is acquired through unlawfully consuming the orphan's wealth.
The best adornment of a man is calmness with faith.
Whoever pursues scandal, Allah (swt) will expose him.
Whoever accepts trials will endure them, and whoever does not recognize them will reject them.
Doubt is disbelief.
Whoever is arrogant, Allah (swt) will humble him.
Whoever obeys Satan disobeys Allah (swt).
Whoever disobeys Allah (swt), Allah (swt) will punish him.
Whoever gives thanks to Allah (swt), He will increase him.
Whoever is patient in adversity, Allah (swt) will relieve him.
Whoever relies on Allah (swt), He will suffice him.
Whoever entrusts himself to Allah (swt), He will reward him.
Do not incur Allah's (swt) wrath by seeking the approval of His (swt) creation.
Do not seek nearness to creation by distancing yourself from Allah (swt). Indeed, there is nothing between Allah (swt), the Exalted, and His creation that can grant them goodness or protect them from harm except obedience to Him and seeking His pleasure.
The obedience of Allah (swt), the Blessed and Exalted, is the key to every good that is sought and the means to salvation from every evil that is feared.
Indeed, Allah (swt), the Exalted, safeguards those who obey Him, but those who disobey Him will find no protection from Him.
No one can escape from Allah (swt), for His command is inevitable, even if creation dislikes it. Everything that is coming is near, and whatever Allah (swt) wills will be, and whatever He does not will shall never be.
Cooperate in righteousness and piety, and do not cooperate in sin and transgression.
Fear Allah (swt); indeed, Allah (swt) is severe in punishment.'"
Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq said:
"This is the statement of Messenger of Allah (swt), blessings be upon him and his family."
