Islamic Quotes

“Whoever continuously abandons the sunnah (voluntary) prayers, then this shows a weakness in his religion.

“The person who is seeking the truth, one evidence will be enough for him. A person who is upon their desires, a thousand clues will still not be clear for him.

Imam al-Albani

“Try to pray tahajjud [voluntary night prayer] at least once a week and you will find very big differences in your life.

Mufti Ismail Menk

“Mankind today is on the brink of a precipice. Humanity is threatened not only by nuclear annihilation but by the absence of values. The West has lost its vitality and Marxism has failed. At this crucial and bewildering juncture, the turn of Islam and the Muslim community has arrived.

Sayyid Qutb

“You’re a man, but the day you raise your voice to your mother, you’re not anymore.

Tariq Ramadan

“…Indeed our words will remain lifeless, barren, devoid of any passion, until we die as a result of these words, whereupon our words will suddenly spring to life and live on amongst the hearts that are dead, bringing them back to life as well..

Sayyid Qutb

“It is impossible to live, to bear witness, to pray, to fast, to make the pilgrimage alone, apart from other people and thinking only of oneself. To be with God is to be with other people: to bear the faith is to bear responsibility for social commitment at every moment. The teaching that must be understood from zakat could not be more explicit: to possess is to have the duty to share. It is impossible shamelessly to accumulate possessions in the name of personal freedom when it leads to exploitation and social injustices; it is impossible, too, to forget the interests of society as a whole and consider only one’s own. Of course, people are free, but they are responsible for this freedom before God and other people. This responsibility is undeniably moral: according to this morality, to be free means to protect the freedom and dignity of others.

Tariq Ramadan

“When Allah tests you it is never to destroy you. When He removes something in your possession it is only in order to empty your hands for an even greater gift.

Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah

“Complete happiness lies in obedience to Allāh, and anguish is found in disobedience to Him and opposition against Him.

Abd ar-Rahman ibn Nasir as-Sa`di

“So what does our deen (religion) want? In a nutshell, what Allah wants from us is to constantly try to get better. Not to become perfect, but to get better. Get better than what? Get better than who? Get better than yourself from yesterday.

We just have to constantly try to improve. At the end of the day, it doesn't matter if we’re talking about ourselves as teachers, da’ies (preachers and advocates), worshipers, as Muslims in any capacity — all our deen wants is constant effort to improve.

If we internalize that, then it gives us many benefits. One of the most important benefits of that realization is, we will never be satisfied with where we are.

Nouman Ali Khan

“Let not your love become attachment, nor your hate become destruction.

Umar ibn al-Khattab

“Islam doesn't demand the elimination of cultural diversity. It simply seeks to rid cultures of unjust and immoral practices.

Nouman Ali Khan

“I am not free and independent; I am a traveler with duties.

Said Nursi

“Pleasing a human is very difficult, pleasing God is the easiest.

Tariq Ramadan

“Scholars are not stars, they are educators. Stars believe the audience is there to serve them, scholars believe they are there to serve the community.

Tariq Ramadan

“In any nation, the hypocrites do not become apparent except during times of fitnah (severe tests and hardships).

Yasmin Mogahed

“Our train is heading towards death, and we are worried about life.

Mufti Ismail Menk

“O Allah! If I cannot always understand Your wisdom in what You decree, please let me at least have the insight to accept it and be content with it.

Salman al-Ouda

“Of the main signs of Allah’s mercy towards someone is that He starts to reveal that person’s faults to himself so that the person can recognize and make efforts to correct. In dire contrast a major sign of Allah’s anger towards someone is that He hides that person’s faults from himself so that he keeps erring.

Zulfiqar Ahmad

“When you treat people well, those same people might not treat you the same way. But if you pay attention, you’ll notice that Allah has sent OTHER people who treat you even better.

Shaykh Omar Suleiman

“Worry is a direct consequence of relying on your own efforts.

Yasmin Mogahed

“How do you get yourself to keep trying when something looks so impossible? Just remember Hajar and how she ran the same course seven times looking for the impossible: water in a desert.

Yasmin Mogahed

“O Allah, if You have written me down as being someone who is miserable, then erase that for me; and instead write me down as being happy. For indeed, You erase whatever You wish, and You write down and uphold [whatever You wish].

Umar ibn al-Khattab

“Relationships can’t blossom unless there is meaningful communication. That’s why “supplication is the key to worship.” It is a sign of meaningful communication between God and a person

Suhaib Webb

“Whoever spends his time remembering Allah, reading the Quran, accompanying the righteous and distancing oneself from the heedless and the sinful, his heart would be in a good state and will soften, Allah the Elevated said: “It is with the remembrance of Allah that hearts find tranquility."

Ibn Baaz (Abd al-Aziz ibn Abd Allah Ibn Baaz)

“When a person spends his entire day with no concern but Allah alone, Allah will take care of all his needs and take care of all that is worrying him; He will empty his heart so that it will be filled only with love for Him.

Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah

“Whoever has offended you and then approached you to apologize, humility obligates that you accept his apology whether it is truthful or not, and that you leave his secret thoughts to God.

The sign of generosity and humility is that if you notice a defect in his apology, you do not address it nor hold him against it.

Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah

“Your heart beats 72 times a minute. Every time it beats, it does so with the permission of its Creator.

Ustadh Khurram Murad

“Son of Adam; you seek the world as if your very life depended on it and you seek the Hereafter as if you have no need of it! You will acquire what you need from this world even if you do not run after it, but you will only attain the Hereafter if you run after it. So be aware of your true condition!

Yahya ibn Mu`adh

“You can’t run in more than one direction at a time. And you will only run in the direction you are facing. So if your heart is facing anything other than Allah, it isn’t Him you’re running towards.

Yasmin Mogahed

“From the perfection of Allah’s ihsan is that He allows His slave to taste the bitterness of the break before the sweetness of the mend. So He does not break his believing slave, except to mend him. And He does not withhold from him, except to give him. And He does not test him (with hardship), except to cure him.

Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah

“People of dua are optimistic by definition. They know that dua and thoughts like ‘unlikely’ or ‘impossible’ don’t coexist.

Nouman Ali Khan

“Know that if people are impressed with you, in reality they are impressed with the beauty of Allah’s covering of your sins.

Ibn al-Jawzi

“If the heart is fed by love, the greed for pleasure would disappear.

Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah

“Verily, Allah lets [a person] enjoy a blessing for as long as He wills. But when He is no longer thanked for it, He turns it into a punishment.

al-Hasan al-Basri

“One who does not suffer from sorrow should fear that he could not be from the people of Jannah because Allāh (swt) says about the believers when they enter into Jannah: “Praise to Allah, who has removed from us [all] sorrow. Indeed, our Lord is Forgiving and Appreciative.” (35:34)

Ibrahim at-Taymee

“Thank those who correct you. It is through them that the Almighty chose to help you by highlighting your error.

Mufti Ismail Menk

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

Ibn Taymiyyah

“When you have a bad suspicion about a Muslim in your heart, you should increase your consideration toward him and make dua for him. This way you will infuriate Satan and will be able to drive him away. Because of this, Satan will be reluctant to put evil thoughts into your heart, afraid that you would increase your consideration towards your brother and will make dua for him again.

Abu Hamid al-Ghazali
