-'''Muttaqīn sermon''' (Arabic: خطبة المتّقین) (Pious sermon) is one of the most famous sermons of [[Imam 'Ali (a)]] in which he describes a pious [[Muslim]].

+==Cause of Delivering the Sermon==
+It is narrated that [[Hammam]] who was a devoted worshiper and one of the companions of [[Imam 'Ali (a)]] asked him to describe the pious: "O, [[Amir al-Mu'minin]], describe the pious for me as if I am looking at them." Imam 'Ali (a) tried to void answering and said, "O Hammam, be wary of [[Allah]] and perform good deeds because 'Indeed Allah is with those who are wary [[God]] and those who do good (to others).'([[Q 16|16]]:128)"
+Hammam, was not content with that and insisted on more details. Then the Imam praised Allah and extolled Him and sought His blessings on [[the Prophet (s)]] and started the sermon.
+It is narrated that after the sermon, Hammam lost conciseness and passed away. Imam 'Ali (a) said, "Verily, by [[God]] I feared this for him." Then he added: "Effective advice has such influence on its people (who have receptive ears)."
+Someone said, "O Amir al-Mu'minin, why did not it affect you?" Amir al-Mu'minin (a) replied, "Woe to you! There is a fixed hour for each death that it will not exceeded it, and a cause which does not change. Be silent and never repeat such talk, indeed [[Satan]] had put on your tongue."

 They are not satisfied with their meager good acts, and do not regard their major acts as great. They always blame themselves and are afraid of their deeds. When anyone of them is spoken of highly, he says: "I know myself better than others, and my Lord knows me better than I know. O Allah, do not deal with me according to what they say, and make me better than they think of me and forgive me (those shortcomings) which they do not know."
