19ـ الإمامُ الرِّضا (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): إنَّ لِلقُلوبِ إقبالاً وإدباراً، ونَشاطاً وفُتوراً، فإذا أقبَلَت بَصُرَت وفَهِمَت، وإذا أدبَرَت كَلَّت ومَلَّت، فَخُذُوها عِندَ إقبالِها ونَشاطِها، واترُكُوها عِندَ إدبارِها وفُتورِها . |
| 19– Imam al-Rida (AS) said, ‘Hearts draw near and turn away, and become active and frigid. So when they draw forward they see and understand, and when they fall back they become dim and weary. Therefore, make use of them when they draw near and are active, and leave them when they are feeble and weary.’[Bihar al-Anwar, v. 78, p. 353, no. 9] |

20ـ الإمامُ العسكريُّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): إذا نَشِطَتِ القُلوبُ فَأودِعْها (فَأودِعُوها)، وإذا نَفرَت فَوَدِّعُوها . |
| 20– Imam al-`Aaskari (AS) said, ‘When the hearts are active commit them [to use], and when they are averse, leave them.’[al-Durra al-Bahira, p. 43] |
