"عَنْ خِلَاسِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو قَالَ: كُنَّا جُلُوسًا عِنْدَ عَلِىِّ بْنِ أَبِى طَالِبٍ إذْ أَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ خُزَاعَةَ فَقَالَ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ: هَلْ سَمِعْتَ رَسُولَ الله ﷺ يَنْعَتُ الإِسلَامَ؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ الله ﷺ يَقُولُ: بُنِىَ الإِسْلَامُ عَلَى أَرْبَعَةِ أَرْكَانٍ: عَلَى الصَّبْر، وَالْيَقِينِ، وَالْجِهَادِ، وَالْعَدْلِ، وَللصَّبْرِ أَرْبَعُ شُعَبٍ: الشَّوْقُ، وَالشَّفَقَةُ، وَالزَّهَادَةُ، والتَّرَقُّبُ، فَمنِ اشْتَاقَ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ سَلَا عَنِ الشَّهَوَاتِ، وَمَنْ أَشْفَقَ مِنَ النَّارِ رَجَعَ عَنِ الْمُحَرَّمَاتِ، وَمَنْ زَهِدَ فِى الدُّنْيَا تَهَاوَنَ بِالْمُصِيبَاتِ، وَمَنِ ارْتَقَبَ الْمَوْتَ سَارَعَ فِى الدُّنْيَا تَهَاوَنَ بالْمُصِيبَات، وَمَنِ ارْتَقَبَ الْمَوْتَ سَارَعَ في الْخَيْرَاتِ، وَلِلْيَقِينِ أَرْبَعُ شُعَبٍ: تَبْصِرَةُ الْفِطْنَةِ، وَتَأوِيلُ الْحِكْمَةِ، وَمَعْرفَةُ الْعِبْرَةِ، وَاتِّبَاعُ السُّنَّةِ، فَمَنْ أَبْصَرَ الْفِطْنَةَ تَأَوَّلَ الْحِكْمَةَ، وَمَنْ تَأَوَّلَ الْحِكْمَةَ عَرَفَ الْعِبْرَةَ، وَمَنْ عَرَفَ الْعِبْرَةَ اتَّبَعَ السُّنَّةَ، وَمنِ اتَّبَعَ السُّنَّةَ فَكَأَنَّمَا كَانَ فِى الأَوَّلِينَ، وَلِلْجِهَادِ أَرْبَعُ شُعَبٍ: الأَمْرُ بالْمَعرُوفِ، وَالنَّهْىُ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ، وَالصِّدْقُ فِى الْمَوَاطِنِ، وَشَنَآنُ الْفَاسِقِينَ، فَمَنْ أَمَرَ بالْمَعرُوفِ شَدَّ ظَهْرَ الْمُؤْمِنِ، وَمَنْ نَهَى عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ أَرْغَمَ أَنْفَ الْمُنَافِقِ، وَمَنْ صَدَقَ فِى الْمَوَاطِنِ قَضَى الَّذِى عَلَيْه وَأَحْرَزَ دِينَهُ، وَمَنْ شَنِئَ الْفَاسقِينَ فَقَدْ غَضِبَ لله، وَمَنْ غَضِبَ لله يَغْضَب الله لَهُ، وَلِلْعَدْلِ أَرْبَعُ شُعَبٍ: غَوْصُ الْفَهْم، وَزَهْرَةُ الْعِلْمِ، وَشَرَائعُ الْحُكْم وَرَوْضَةُ الْحِلْمِ (فَمَنْ غَاصَ الْفَهْمَ فَسَّرَ جُمَلَ الْعِلْمِ، وَمَنْ رَعَى زَهْرَةَ الْعِلْم عَرَفَ شَرَائِعَ الْحُكْمِ، وَمَنْ عَرَفَ شَرَائِعَ الْحُكْمِ وَرَدَ رَوْضَةَ الْحِلْمِ، ) وَمَنْ وَرَدَ رَوْضَةَ الْحِلْمِ لَمْ يُفَرِّطْ أَمْرَهُ وَعَاشَ فِى النَّاسِ وَهُوَ فِى رَاحَةٍ".

"Narrated from Khilas ibn 'Amr, who said: We were sitting with 'Ali ibn Abi Talib when a man from Khuza'ah came to him and said: 'O Commander of the Faithful, did you hear the Messenger of Allah ﷺ describe Islam?' He said: 'Yes, I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: Islam is built upon four pillars: upon patience, certainty, struggle, and justice. Patience has four branches: longing, compassion, asceticism, and watchfulness. Whoever longs for Paradise turns away from desires; whoever fears the Fire refrains from what is forbidden; whoever is ascetic in this world takes the calamities lightly; and whoever watches for death hastens to good deeds. Certainty has four branches: insight of understanding, interpretation of wisdom, recognition of lessons, and following the Sunnah. Whoever sees with understanding interprets wisdom; whoever interprets wisdom recognizes lessons; whoever recognizes lessons follows the Sunnah; and whoever follows the Sunnah is as if he was among the first. Struggle has four branches: enjoining good, forbidding evil, truthfulness in critical situations, and hatred of the wicked. Whoever enjoins good strengthens the back of the believer; whoever forbids evil humbles the nose of the hypocrite; whoever is truthful in critical situations fulfils what is incumbent upon him and secures his religion; whoever hates the wicked has become angry for Allah, and whoever becomes angry for Allah, Allah becomes angry for him. Justice has four branches: depth of understanding, flower of knowledge, laws of judgment, and garden of forbearance. (Whoever plumbs understanding explains the principles of knowledge; whoever tends the flower of knowledge knows the laws of judgment; whoever knows the laws of judgment reaches the garden of forbearance.) Whoever reaches the garden of forbearance does not neglect his affair, and lives among people in ease.'"
