(Oh Allah) How could an argument be given about your Existence by a thing whose total & complete existence is in need of you?Is it that the advent of other than You is such that the like (advent) is not present in You , so that the one other than You becomes a. clear evidence (expression) of your presence? When did you ever disappear so that you might need an evidence & logic to lead (the people) towards You? And when did You ever become away & take distance so that your signs & effects make the people get , in touch with you?Blind be the eye which does not see You (Whereas) You are observing him (PRAYER OF ARFA DAY IE 9th OF ZILHIJA). (BIHAR UL ANWAR , VOL 98 , P 226)
قال سيدالشهداء(ع) كَيْفَ يُستَدَلُّ عَلَيْكَ بِما هُوَ في وُجوُدِهِ مُفْتَقِرٌ إلَيْكَ ؟ اَيَكُونُ لِغَيْرِكَ مِنَ الظُّهُورِ ما لَيَْسَ لَكَ حَتي يَكُونَ هُوَ الْمَظْهِرُ لَكَ؟ مَتي غِبْتَ حَتي تَحْتاجَ الي دَليلٍ يَدُلُّ عَلَيْكَ ؟ وَ متي بَعُدْتَ حتي تَكُونَ الاثارُ هِيَ الَّتي تُوصِل اِلَيْكَ عَمِيَتْ عَيْنٌ لا تَراكَ عَلَيْها رَقيباً (دعاي عرفه ، بحار الانوار ج98ص226)

قال سيدالشهداء(ع) ماذا وَجَدَ مَنْ فَقَدكَ ؟ وَ ما الذي فَقَدَ مَنْ وَجَدَكَ؟ لَقَدْ خابَ مَنْ رَضِيَ دُونَكَ بَدَلاً (دعاي عرفه ، بحار الانوار ج98ص228)

قال سيدالشهداء(ع) لا يَاْمَنُ يَوْم الْقِيامَةِ اِلاّ مَنْ خافَ اللهَ في الدُنْيا (بحار الانوار ج44ص192)
Allah , firstly mentioned , "command for good & forbid to do evil" as one of His obligatory services , since , He knew that if these two obligatories are performed & established , all the obligatory services out of easy & hard will get performed & established. Because , "command for good & forbid to do evil" invites to Islam , alongwith giving out the right of those having right & opposing of the tyrants & oppressors. (TUHFL AQOOL , P 237)
قال سيدالشهداء(ع) فَبَداَ اللهُ بِالامْرِ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَ النَّهْي عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ فَرِيضَةً مِنْهُ لِعِلْمِهِ بِاَنَّها اِذا اُدِيَت وَاقِيمَت اسْتَقامَتِ الْفرائضُ كُلُّها هَيِّنُها وَ صَعْبُها وَ ذلِكَ اَنَّ الاَمْرَ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَ النَّهْيَ عَنِ الْمُنْكَر دُعاءٌ اِلَي الاسْلامِ مَعَ رَدَّ الْمَظالِمِ وَ مُخالَفَةِ الظّالِمِ (تحف العقول ص237)
O h people! the Prophet of Allah(P.B.U.H.) said the person who sees that a tyrant & unjust king has made the things forbidden by Allah legal & allowed , broken & breeched His promise & perjure , opposed the sunnah & tradition of prophet of Allah , acted among the servants of lord whith sin & tyranny. So when he does not act against him (the king) through practice or speech. It is Allahs right to make him enter into his (kings) place of entry (Hell). (MAQTAL KHAWARZAMI , VOL 1 , P 234)
قال سيدالشهداء(ع) اَيُّهَاَ النّاسُ انَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ قالَ مَنْ رَاي سُلْطاناً جائِراً مُسْتَحِلاً لِحَرامِ اللهِ ناكِثاً عَهْدَهُ مُخالِفاً لِسُنَّةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ يَعُمَلُ في عِبادِ اللهِ بِاْلإثْمِ وَالْعُدْوانِ فَلَمْ يُغَيِِرُ عَلَيْهِ بِفِعْلٍ وَ لا قَوْلٍ كانَ حَقّاً عَلَي اللهِ أَنْ ُيدْخِلَهُ مَدْخَلَهُ ( مقتل خوارزمي ج1ص234)

Do you not see that the right is not being put into practice & distance is not being taken from the falsehood. (In this situation) the faithful is inclined to it (it suits him) that he meets Allah. (TUHFUL AQOOL , P 245)
