SHAFAQNA – To a follower of Ahlul Bait (AS), Imam Jawad (AS) wrote: We all know each other in this world and live together, but whoever thinks the same as his/her friend and follows that friend’s school of thought and ideology, he/she is with that friend and the eternal abode is the hereafter; meaning if you follow us (Ahlul Bait (AS)) and our school of thought, you are always with us even in the hereafter [1]. In another narration, Imam Jawad (AS) said: Avoid friendship with a wicked person who has a good appearance and an ugly effect [2].
