Hawzah News Agency Imam al-Baqir peace be upon him says:

إنّ أهلَ التَّقوى‏ أيسَرُ أهلِ الدُّنيا مَؤونَةً، وأكثَرُهُم لكَ مَعونَةً، تَذكُرُ فيُعِينونَكَ، وإن نَسِيتَ ذَكَّروكَ، قَوّالُونَ بأمرِ اللَّهِ، قَوّامُونَ على‏ أمرِ اللَّهِ، قَطَعوا مَحَبَّتَهُم بمَحَبَّةِ رَبِّهِم، ووَحَّشوا الدُّنيا لِطاعَةِ مَليكِهِم، ونَظَروا إلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّوجلَّ وإلى‏ مَحَبَّتِهِ بِقُلوبِهِم، وعَلِموا أنّ ذلكَ هُو المَنظورُ إلَيهِ، لِعَظيمِ شَأنِهِ.

'The Godwary people have the simplest of expenditures in this world, but are the most helpful to you with their provisions, you only have to mention and they help you, and if you forget [your needs] they remind you. They inform of Allah's commands, guardians over Allah's commands, they have confined their love to loving their Lord. They feel estranged in the world in obedience to their Ruler; they look at Allah and His love with their hearts, and they know that He is the ultimate goal because of the magnitude of His Rank.'
