Quotes About Dhikr (Remembrance of Allah)

“Remembrance of Allah with the tongue is a good thing, and what is better is the remembrance of Allah when one is about to commit a sin, and this preventing him from committing it.

Maimun bin Mihraan

“Remembrance is to the heart what water is to the fish. And what is the state of a fish that leaves water?

Ibn Taymiyyah

“When you forget that you need Allah, He puts you in a situation that causes you to call upon Him. And that's for your own good.

Shaykh Omar Suleiman

“A man said to al-Hasan al-Basri: "O Abu Sa`eed, I am complaining to you of the hardness of my heart."
He said: "Soften it with dhikr. The more forgetful the heart is, the hard it becomes, but if a person remembers Allah, that hardness softens as copper melts in the fire.
Nothing can soften the hardness of the heart like the remembrance of Allah, may He be glorified and exalted. Dhikr is healing and medicine for the heart.
Forgetfulness is a disease, the cure for which is remembrance of Allah."

al-Hasan al-Basri

“Wash your heart every morning with salat, then warm it up with dhikr. Approach life with hope and faith. Every day do your best, Allah will do the rest.

Wael Abdelgawad

“Remember Allah in your times of ease and He will remember you when you are in difficulty.

Abu ad-Darda al-Ansari

“Imam Ibn Taymiyyah (may Allah have mercy upon him) was asked: Which one is better for the servant [of Allah], istighfar [seeking Allah's forgiveness in prayer] or tasbeeh [glorifying Allah in prayer]? He answered: If a dress is clean, then incense and rose water are better, and if it is dirty then soap and water is better. tasbeeh is the incense of the pure ones, and istighfar is the soap of the sinners.

Ibn Taymiyyah

“Protect your heart with layer upon layer of guards. And the only guard is the *consistent* remembrance of God.

Yasmin Mogahed

“There is no doubt that the heart becomes covered with rust, just as metal dishes—silver, and their like—become rusty. So the rust of the heart is polished with dhikr (remembrance of Allaah), for dhikr polishes the heart until it becomes like a shiny mirror. However, when dhikr is abandoned, the rust returns; and when it commences then the heart again begins to be cleansed. Thus the heart becoming rusty is due to two matters: sins and ahafah (neglecting remembrance of Allaah ). Likewise, it is cleansed and polished by two things : istighfaar (seeking Allaah’s forgiveness) and dhikr.

Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah

“One praise of Allah is more precious than the whole world because the reward of that praise will last forever, while the world will perish.

Yasir Qadhi

“If you constantly remember Allah, Allah will show you signs that He is remembering you - "So remember me, I shall remember you." [2:152].

Yasir Qadhi

“The sweetness of this life is found in remembering Allah; the sweetness of the next life will be found in seeing Him.

Yasir Qadhi

“The heart is ever restless; it will only find rest in the remembrance of Allah.

Yasir Qadhi

“Constantly thinking about someone is a sign of true love—so how often do those who claim to love Allah remember Him?

Yasir Qadhi

“Whoever does not find happiness in the dhikr of Allah, prayer, and reciting the Quran, will not find it anywhere else.

al-Hasan al-Basri
