“Remember that which you have never tasted and will only taste once [i.e. death].

Ar-Rabi` ibn Khuthaym Ath-Thawri

“Patience is the noose of the believer, tying him down: he may wander for a bit but always returns.

It is the pillar of his faith to which he recourses, there is no faith for the one who has no patience. If, in such a case, it does exist, it would be severely weak.

The one who has no patience is like worshiping Allah at the edge of a faltering precipice: if good comes his way he takes comfort, but if trial comes his way, the world turns inside out and he loses both it and the Hereafter.

Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah

“The dunya (worldly life) isn’t worth getting stressed out over.

Shaykh Omar Suleiman

“Allah has guaranteed His love for those who love each other for His sake and no two people should love each other more for His sake than a believing husband and wife.

Shaykh Omar Suleiman

“The very essence of our religion is that you will get a deeper faith if you are educated and get the right knowledge.

Tariq Ramadan

“When you see someone who is not as religious, remember that you were once on the edge of the fire, and it was Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta’ala’s favor upon you to guide you. Arrogance will wipe away any goodness from the transformation.

Nouman Ali Khan

“Don’t confuse the pleasure of the flesh with the pleasure of the heart. And don’t confuse the pain of the flesh with the pain of the heart.

Yasmin Mogahed

“Allah, Glorified and Exalted, made the prayer a connective case to His closeness, dialogue [with Him], His love, and intimacy with Him.

Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah

“So let a person strive to keep away his shoulders (to keep away himself) from the Fire. And there is no might nor strength for change except by Allah.

Then it should be known that knowledge is not by the large number of narrations; rather knowledge is light which is put in the heart by Allah.

And its conditions are: Ittiba` (holding on to it and acting upon it), and running way from desires and innovation (false additions to the religion).

Imam ad-Dahabi (az-Zahabi)

“Sometimes you’ll come across someone who isn’t the smartest, wealthiest, or most popular but they have the best Akhlaq (manners). Keep their company.

Abdul Nasir Jangda

“Never forget the favors done for you. Always forget the favors you’ve done for others.

Shaykh Omar Suleiman

“How can you trust one who doesn't pray. If he abandons his Maker, what makes you think he won’t abandon you?

Mufti Ismail Menk

“The first gift we can give to our society is our self education - when you are educated, you care about yourself and your neighbours.

Tariq Ramadan

“If we were supposed to be perfect, why would God’s most emphasized attribute be His mercy and forgiveness?

Yasmin Mogahed

“If a person embraces Islam sincerely, then God shall forgive all his or her past sins, and after that starts the settlement of accounts: The reward of their good deeds will be ten times to seven hundred times for each deed, and a sinful deed will be recorded only as it is, unless God forgives it.

Prophet Muhammad ﷺ

“The body's weakness comes from illnesses, while the heart's weakness comes from sins. And just as the body does not taste the delights of food when it is ill, the heart does not taste the delights of worship when it is sinful.

Dhul-Nun al-Misri

“Fitnah continues upon the heart, except if the Deen of the slave is completely for Allah.

Ibn Taymiyyah

“Don’t think of the trials in your life (‘balaa’) as just a ‘test’ in the human form. Allah is not like a professor who hands you a test, moves away and just watches from afar to see how you’ll do. Allah is our murabee—the One who raises us with more mercy than a mother raises a child. The Prophet (pbuh) tells us that when Allah wills good for someone, he sends them ‘balaa’ (trials or tests). When Allah wills good for us, He purifies us. That is why each person is tested in what they love most. In other words our greatest possible ‘competitor’ in our love for God is what is withheld or must be sacrificed. This is the purification process because it cures the heart of competitors. Why was Prophet Ibrahim (AS) asked to slaughter the most beloved thing to him? Did Allah actually want him to *kill* his son? No. He didn’t kill his son. He killed the attachment. By being willing to sacrifice what he loved most, he had slaughtered any possible competing love. Allah was raising him, purifying him and elevating him. Allah tell us, “By no means shall you attain righteousness unless you give (freely) of that which you love.” (3:92)

Yasmin Mogahed

“Whoever prefers Allah to all others, Allah will prefer him to others.

Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah

“I was told of a man from the Children of Israel who had a need that he wanted fulfilled by Allah. So, he engaged in constant worship and then asked Allah for his need.

When he did not see that his need was fulfilled, he spent the night blaming himself, saying: “O self! What is wrong with you that is preventing your need from being fulfilled?”

And he spent the night sad and holding himself to account, saying: “By Allah, the problem is not with my Lord. Rather, the problem is with myself,” and he remained in such a state of holding himself responsible until his need was finally taken care of.

Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah
