Among the Concise Words of the Messenger of Allah (Peace Be Upon Him)
وَ رَوَى مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سِنَانٍ عَنِ اَلْمُفَضَّلِ بْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ قَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: "مَنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ وَاعِظٌ مِنْ قَلْبِهِ وَ زَاجِرٌ مِنْ نَفْسِهِ وَ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ قَرِينٌ مُرْشِدٌ اِسْتَمْكَنَ عَدُوُّهُ مِنْ عُنُقِهِ".
Muhammad ibn Sinan narrated from Al-Mufaddal ibn Umar, who said that Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام, peace be upon him, said: "Whoever does not have an inner advisor from his heart, a restrainer from his own soul, and a guiding companion, his enemy will easily gain control over him."
