قُل لَّآ أَسْـَٔلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ أَجْرًا إِلَّا ٱلْمَوَدَّةَ فِى ٱلْقُرْبَىٰ

“Say (O Muḥammad unto humankind): I  ask of you no reward for it (for conveying the message of God), save friendship for [my] relatives” (42:23)

Hazrat Mawlana Sultan Muhammad Shah(s.a) 

 “For your religious progress, I tell you one thing which includes everything. The most important thing is that you keep a strong and solid faith in the successors of Muhammad and ‘Ali. It should be even more than on your mother, father, wealth and health. You will have No Fear in this world if you love the descendants of Muhammad and ‘Ali. This one hint includes all the beauties of prayers and religion.”
