“Whatever is not done by the permission of Allah will not happen, and what is not done for the sake of Allah will not benefit or remain.”

Beautiful leaving (hajr), is to leave without harming, beautiful pardoning is to pardon without rebuking, and beautiful patience is to be patient without complaining.

A man will never fear something besides Allah unless it be due to a disease in his heart.

Don’t depend too much on anyone.

Among the principles of the Ahlus Sunnah wal Jama’ah lie the attitude of peace and purity of their heart and tongue towards the Sahaba(Companions) of the Prophet (saw).

Avoiding the temptation to sin and being patient upon that, is greater than being patient whilst being afflicted with trials.

The entire religion revolves around acknowledging the truth and then acting upon it.

Sins are like chains and locks preventing their perpetrator from roaming the vast garden of Tawheed and reaping the fruits of righteous actions.

Sins cause harm and repentance removes the cause.

Through patience and certainty, leadership in the religion is obtained.

A believer to another believer is like two hands, one washes the other (correcting each other).

The earth should not be injured. The earth should not be destroyed. As often as the elements, the elements of the world are violated by ill treatment, so God will cleanse them thru the sufferings, thru the hardships of mankind.

The point is not to completely understand God but to worship Him. Let the very fact that you cannot know Him fully lead you to praise Him for His infiniteness and grandeur.

Let no man’s place, or dignity, or riches, puff him up; and let no man’s low condition or poverty abase him. For the chief points are faith towards God, hope towards Christ, the enjoyment of those good things for which we look, and love towards God and our neighbor.

Religion is not the belief there is a god. Religion is the belief god tells you what to do.

Spend plenty of time with God; let other things go, but don’t neglect Him. We are not here to do work for God, we are here to be workers with Him, those through whom He can do His work.

The only way we can be of use to God is to let Him take us through the crooks and crannies of our own characters.

The most common mistake Christians make in worship today is seeking an experience rather than seeking God.
