“Happiness is attained by three things: being patient when tested, being thankful when receiving a blessing, and being repentant upon sinning.

Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah

“Love a little more than what is necessary,
work a little harder than what is required,
be a little kinder than what is usual,
give a little bit more than what you feel you can afford, stand in prayer a little longer than what you intended,

It is that little extra effort sparked by sincerity in the heart that makes your ordinary self extraordinary.

Abdulbary Yahya

“Every one of us is tested in different ways. For some of us, it might be the excess of wealth, for others, the lack of wealth. For some, it might be in the avoidance of alcohol, for other, guarding one's tongue from speaking evil.

Yasir Qadhi

“[Regarding hardship and calamities] The lowest level of good manners toward God is for the human to accuse his own judgment regarding what is good for him instead of accusing God's decrees.

Sayyid Qutb

“God loves sincere return to Him and He forgives and purifies. The Prophet (SAW) himself exemplified that in many circumstances. `Aishah (r) reports that once, a man came to the Prophet and told him: “I am lost!” The Prophet asked: “Why?” The man confessed: “I had intercourse with my wife during the fasting hours of Ramadan.” Muhammad answered: “Give charity!” The man replied: “I own nothing!” Then he sat down at a short distance from the Prophet. Some time later, a man arrived, bringing a dish of food. [Muslim, Bukhâri] The Prophet called out: “Where is the man who is lost?” “Here”, he answered. Muhammad told him: “Take this food and give it away in charity.” “To one poorer than myself? My family has nothing to eat!” “Well then, eat it yourselves”, the Prophet replied with a smile. That gentleness and kindness were the very essence of his teaching.

Tariq Ramadan
