Giving precedence to the wish of Imam-e-Zamana (a.s.) This means that when we intend to take a step weto our wishes should ponder upon it whether Imam-e-Zamana (a.s.) shall be pleased with it or not. We should do it only if it is as per his wishes and not if it is going to cause his displeasure. In such situations we should overcome our personal desires and achieve the Imam's pleasure. You shall become his loved one and remembered in good words by Imam (a.s.) and his forefathers. This is mentioned in the tradition recorded by Fazil Muhaddis Noori quoting from Amali of Shaykh Tusi that the narrator asked Imam Sadiq (a.s.), "Why do we hear so much about Salman the Persian from you?" Imam (a.s.) said, "Do not call him Salman the Persian, say Salman the Muhammadan. Do you know why I remember him so much." "I don't know," said the narrator. "It is due to three things", said the Imam (a.s.), "He gave preference to the desire of Amirul Momineen (a.s.) over his personal wishes. Befriending the poor and preferring them over affluent people and his attachment to knowledge and scholars. Indeed Salman was a righteous Muslim and not of the polytheists.
