“When the believer speaks, it is with wisdom, when he is silent, it is in deep thought, when he sees”

O people of the Qur`an, the night has become long so you can pray (more) and the day has become short for you to fast.”

By He in whose Hand is my soul, I have lived amongst people who never ordered food to be prepared for themselves

The intelligent person is not one who merely knows what is good and what is bad.

It is reported from ‘Ubayd ibn ‘Umayr (radiAllahu anhu) that he said: “It used to be said when winter came:

The intelligent person is one who, when he sees what is good, follows it, and when he sees evil, shuns it.

he takes lessons, and when he acts, it is a cure. If this is the way you are, then you are in the constant worship [of your Lord.]

The believer speaks little and does a lot, whereas the hypocrite speaks a lot and does little.

Sit with the repentant, for they have the softest hearts.

The limb that a person most needs to purify is his tongue.

If [food] was presented to one of them, he would eat, otherwise, he would be silent; and he would not care if it was hot or cold.

I think we as believers can be secure in our relationship with Christ. I’m not saying that sin isn’t sin.

I’m not saying that people should live in unrepentant sin. I’m not saying that that’s a mark of a mature believer at all.

The point that I’m trying to make is that we as believers can have security in Christ when we are believers.

I think that’s really where we need to be more consistent as believers.

I think for believers you know we are helping people pursue holiness through a relationship with Christ.

What I know about my relationship with Christ is that as a believer.

I know Christ. And that is secure. And I think that is something that actually helps believers pursue his holiness.

But we will encourage the church to do that in general for anyone and everyone who’s seeking to be a mature believer in Christ.
