For making you the victim and not the oppressor. There is no crime in being a victim, rather it brings you closer to Allah and rids you of sins. But as for the oppressor, they’ll have to face their Lord one day. So in reality, they are their own greatest victims.

Ibn Rajab al-Hanbali

“If the heart tastes the sweetness of the worship of Allaah and sincerity towards Him, nothing besides this will be sweeter, more delightful, pleasurable and agreeable.
