An Advantageous Reminder

Some of the learned scholars have strongly recommended that the most significant instance of fulfilling the obligation of urging others to do good and preventing them from committing sins is one's own self-discipline. Before anyone else one himself must be obedient to the Laws of God. One should continuously strive to achieve discipline and a higher moral status. Especially, in the case of the religious leaders a continuous hard work for moral accomplishment is one of their great obligations. Their achievement in the field of self-discipline and moral accomplishment will be the best policy of attracting others to follow their example and learn how to obey the Laws of God.
