Quotes About Sincerity

“Your desire that people know your particular distinction is a proof of insincerity in your servanthood

Ibn 'Ata Allah al-Iskandari

“If you have asked Him to purify your intentions, and you find yourself being stopped from doing many things that you love to do or be part of, consider that your purification has already started. Be grateful, not hasty in sadness.

Know that there is nothing more humbling and purifying than accepting His decree with a full and satisfied heart!

Tawfique Chowdhury

“The first stage of sincerity is that your private and public state should be the same.

Abu Hamid al-Ghazali

“Nothing is harder on the ego than sincerity, for it gains nothing from it.

Sahl bin Abdullah

“Whenever the love for people's praise increases in the heart, with it sincerity decreases.

Abdul Aziz bin Marzuq at-Tarifi

“The two armies that can never be defeated are: the sincere heart, and the righteous dua.

Ibn Taymiyyah

“Erase the past with repentance and build the future with sincerity and good deeds.

Abdulbary Yahya

“Sincerity is not combined in the heart along with the love of being praised by the people, and being commended by them, and also having greed for what the people have, except like water being combined with fire.

Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah

“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).

Al-Fudayl ibn Iyad (Al-Fozail ibn Iyaz)

“Be sincere in your aim and you will find the support of Allaah surrounding you.

Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah

“The person who is righteous and honest, his honesty is manifest from the radiance on his face, and his honesty can be known from the glow that is on his face, likewise the (opposite for the) sinful one and the liar. The older a person gets, the more this sign becomes apparent. Thus a person as a child would have a bright face, however if he becomes a sinful person, adamant on committing sins, at the older stages in his life, an ugly face would manifest that which he used to internalise, and the opposite is also true. It has been narrated that Ibn Abbaas (radiyallaahu ‘anhu) said, ‘Indeed righteousness illuminates the heart, radiates the face, strengthens the body, increases provision, and produces a love in the hearts of the creation for that person. Whereas sinfulness darkens the heart, greys the face, weakens the body, and produces hatred in the hearts of the creation for that person.’

Ibn Taymiyyah

“Speak your heart. If they don't understand, the message was never meant for them, anyway.

Yasmin Mogahed

“What comes out of the heart, enters the heart. Be real with people.

Yasmin Mogahed

“Saying, "I'm sorry, I made a mistake," sincerely is one of the best ways to show you are as perfect as humanly possible.

Yasir Qadhi

“Always being sincere to the values you believe in gains not only the support of friends, but also the respect of critics.

Yasir Qadhi

“People don't care how much you know until they know how much you care. Be sincere in your speech to others!

Yasir Qadhi

“Sincerity emits a fragrance that can be detected by surrounding hearts.

Yasir Qadhi

“Sincerity causes the smallest of good deeds to become the largest.
