“There are those who venerate the creation, so that they do not respect their private time in the presence of God. By the amount that they engage in private sins, and by the degree of their sins, a bad scent spreads from them, so that [people's] hearts begin to dislike them.

Ibn al-Jawzi

“If you have the ability to pass all of the scholars and the ascetics by [in knowledge and virtue], then do so, for they were humans, and you are a human.

Ibn al-Jawzi

“The most beneficial people toward me have been those who acted by their knowledge, even if they were less knowledgeable than others.

Ibn al-Jawzi

“If pain encompasses a knower of God, he turns away from the apparent cause of it, and will not see other than its Sender. He is in the best of living with Him: When he is silent, he thinks of carrying out what is due to Him, when he speaks, he speaks that which pleases Him. His heart does not attach itself to a wife or child, and does not needily cling to the love of anyone. His body interacts with people, but his soul is with its Master.

Ibn al-Jawzi

“Glory to the Great King who is feared by anyone who knows Him, and Who, whenever someone feels secure from His ability to plan against him has not known Him. I thought about an important matter; that He, glory to Him, grants respite until it appears that He neglects, so that one sees the hands of doers of evil unrestrained as if there is nothing to stop them. When their evil deeds accumulate to a certain degree and they do not take heed, He fiercely seizes them and vanquishes them.

Ibn al-Jawzi

“I also advise you with five matters: when you are treated unjustly, do not behave unjustly; when you are praised, do not become happy; when you are criticized, do not become upset; when you are not believed, do not become angry; and if people act deceitfully towards you, do not act deceitfully towards them.

Ibn Abi Hatim

“O Friend, the cloth from which your burial shroud will be cut may have already reached the market and you remain unaware.

Abu Hamid al-Ghazali

“The worst of our faults is our interest in other people’s faults.

Imam Ali bin Abi Talib

“Islam prohibits the burning of animals whether dead or alive what more of humans! ISIS does not represent Islam

Muhammad Al Yaqoubi

“You have infused my being Through and through, As an intimate friend must Always do. So when I speak, I speak of only You And when silent, I yearn for You.

Rabi`a al-Adawiyyah

“Call on your Lord when your heart is brittle, that is a time when it’s in pieces and the Light of Allah can fill the gaps. That is why Allāh is with the brokenhearted.

Hamza Yusuf

“A quick and easy way to check to see if you have a pure heart is seeing how readily willing you are to give a compliment to others.

If your first instinct when you see something nice or hear about the success of someone you feel constricted then know you have jealousy in your heart. If you genuinely feel happy for the other person and you feel secure with yourself it will be very easy to happily give a compliment.

If you see traces of jealousy in your heart, train yourself to be content by realizing that everything is portioned with great wisdom. No one is going to take anything away from you that was meant for you. Realize the wisdom in the distribution of wealth, knowledge, beauty, and success.

This will ease your heart, prevent you from eating yourself up and allow you to enjoy the beauty & success of others while feeling secure within.

Halel Banani

“Allah loves His creation. That’s why He rewards so greatly for serving them.

Yasmin Mogahed

“If you chose a spouse for the right reasons, prayed istikhara, asked Allah for the good of that person, and still ended up with a bad spouse…know that there is a “good” lesson that you were being taught and pay close attention to the Teacher

Shaykh Omar Suleiman

“One of the most courageous things you can do is admit your wrong and recognize your shortcomings. That’s the first step towards recovery.

Halel Banani

“What comes to a person in his or her life, however difficult it may be, perhaps will help a person move closer to God.

The response to tribulation is ṣabr, which is patience, perseverance, steadfastness, and resolve.

Allāh loves the patient; part of the reason the tribulation comes is to draw the quality of patience out of them - He loves this quality.

Hamza Yusuf

“When temptation claims your reason, know that misfortune is about to strike. Fall down, prostrate and begin to pray. With flowing tears implore the Lord that He may deliver you from the throes of doubt.

Rumi
