69. Encouraging Amity

(هُوَ الَّذِي أَيَّدَكَ بنَصْرِهِ وَبِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ * وَأَلَّفَ بَيْنَ قُلُوبِهِمْ لَوْ أَنْفَقْتَ ما فِي الْأَرْضِ جَمِيعاً ما أَلَّفْتَ بَيْنَ قُلُوبِهِمْ وَلكِنَّ اللَّهَ أَلَّفَ بَيْنَهُمْ إِنَّهُ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌ) .1

"It is He who strengthened you with His help and with the means of the faithful. And united their hearts. Had you spent all that is in the earth, you could not have united their hearts, but Allah united them together. Indeed He is all-mighty, all-wise." 2

(وَاذْكُرُوا نِعْمَةَ اللَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ إِذْ كُنْتُمْ أَعْدَاءً فَأَلَّفَ بَيْنَ قُلُوبِكُمْ فَأَصْبَحْتُمْ بِنِعْمَتِهِ إِخْوَاناً) .3

"And remember Allah's blessing upon you when you were enemies, then He brought your hearts together, so you became brothers with His blessing." 4

213.الإمامُ عليٌّ عليه السلام : إزَالَةُ الرَّوَاسِي أسْهَلُ مِنْ تَأْلِيفِ القُلُوبِ المُتَنَافِرَةِ .5

213.Imam Ali (AS) said, 'Moving mountains is easier than bringing hostile hearts together.' 6

214.الإمامُ الصّادقُ عليه السلام : إنَّ سُرْعةَ ائْتِلَافِ قُلُوبِ الأبْرَارِ إذا الْتَقَوا - وَإنْ لَمْ يُظهِرُوا التَّوَدُّدَ بأَلْسِنَتِهِمْ - كَسُرْعَةِ اخْتِلَاطِ ماءِ السَّمَاءِ بِماءِ الأنْهَارِ . وإنَّ بُعْدَ ائْتِلَافِ قُلُوبِ الفُجَّارِ إذَا الْتَقَوا - وَإنْ أظْهَرُوا التَّوَدُّدَ بأَلْسِنَتِهِمْ - كَبُعْدِ البَهَائِمِ مِنَ التَّعَاطُفِ وَإنْ طَالَ اعْتِلَافُهَا عَلى‏ مِذْوَدٍ واحِدٍ .7

214.Imam al-Sadiq (AS) said, 'The speed of amity between the hearts of pious people when they meet - even if they do not show their mutual love on their tongues - is like the speed of the rain water when it mixes with the water of rivers. And the distance between the hearts of the wicked when they meet - even if they make a show of love on their tongues - is like the distance between beasts that cannot have mutual affection no matter how long they eat from the same trough.' 8
