O God, if the best for me with Thee lies in delaying the taking to task for my sake of him who has wronged me and in refraining from vengeance toward him until the Day of Decision and the Gathering of Disputants, then bless Muhammad and his Household, strengthen me from Thee with true intention and lasting patience, give me refuge from evil desire and the impatience of the greedy, and form in my heart the image of Thy reward which Thou hast stored away for me and the repayment and punishment which Thou has prepared for my disputant! Make this a cause of my contentment with what Thou hast decreed and my trust in what Thou hast chosen! Amen, Lord of the worlds! Thou art of bounty abounding and Thou art powerful over everything. Imam Sajjad (as) Sahifa-e-Sajjadiyah

Etiquette of Dressing & shoe-wear materials Part 3

For sandals and shoes, the best colour is yellow and next comes white. According to Imam Ali (a.s.) fine shoes keep the body free from germs and diseases. They also help in wazoo (ablution) and Namaz (prayers) as the shoes keep the feet free from dirt. According to Sarraf, when he went before Imam Ja'far-e-Sadiq (a.s.) while having white shoes on the Imam (a.s.) asked him if it was intentional and before Sarraf could answer, the Imam (a.s.) said that any person who buys a white shoe will get money from unknown sources before the shoe gets worn out. Saraf said, that hardly had he started wearing them, when he got hundred gold coins from a place which he could not even dream of.
