“There is no good in you if you do not say it, and there is no good in us if we do not listen to it. (Umar ibn al-Khattab on advice and criticism directed at rulers and leaders)

Umar ibn al-Khattab

“Abu Ali Al-Fudhail ibn Iyaz was asked about "the best deeds" in "who among you have the best deed" (Quran 11:7). He said: "The best of deeds: the most sincere and most correct." They said: "What are the most sincere and most correct deeds?" He said: "Indeed God does not accept a deed if it is not sincere and correct, for if it is correct but insincere it won't be accepted, and if it is sincere but incorrect it won't be accepted, and sincerity is that the deed is done for Allah, and correctness is that it is upon the sunnah (traditions of the Prophet PBUH).

Another wishes that he had gold the fill of the house to spend for the sake of Allah. But Umar said: I wish I had the fill of this house men like Abi Ubaidah ibn al-Jarrah, Muadh ibn Jabal, and Salim the freed slave of Abu Hudhaifah, so that I may use them in the service of Allah.
