A'bd al-Salaam Ibn Saaleh al-Hirawi states: I heard Imam Reza (A.S.) say: “May God have mercy on one who revives our mission!”
I said to him (peace be upon him): How can one revive your mission?
He (peace be upon him) said: “He should learn our teachings and impart them to the people, for if the people become aware of the beauty and charm of our words and teachings, they shall surely follow us.”
