Pearl of Wisdom

I heard Abu al-Hasan al-Rida' (AS) saying, may Allah have mercy on anyone who revives our cause.' I asked, 'How does he revive your cause?' He replied, 'He learns our sciences and teaches them to the people, for verily if people were to know the goodness in our speech, they would follow us.'
