Words of Wisdom

"Whosoever does not endure a difficult beginning, does not have a bright ending" (man lam takun lahu bidayat muhriqa, lam takun lahu nihaya mushriqa).

[Ibn Ata'illah]

"Reflection is the lamp of the heart; if it departs the heart will have no light."

[Imam Al-Haddad ]

"Mix with those who have patience for their hearts are the softest."

[Hadhrat Umar (R.A)]

What has he lost who has found You (O Allah), and what has he found who has lost You (O Allah).

[Ibn Ata'illah]

Everyone who is taken by death asks for more time, while everyone who still has time makes excuses for procrastination.

[Hadhrat Ali (R.A)]

True repentance entails constant regret of your sins.

Without remorse, good deeds, be they abounding, could be eclipsed by pride that follows piety.

Remorse for a sin is superior to good works.

Never forget your transgressions to save yourself from conceit.

[Al Hujwiri]

"The shortest distance between a problem and its solution is the distance between your knees and the floor. The one who kneels to Allah can stand up to anything."

"When the world pushes you to your knees, you are in the perfect position to pray."

He who gossips to you will gossip about you.

Through this toilsome world, alas! once and only once I pass;
If a KINDNESS I may show, if a good deed I may do
To a suffering fellow man, let me do it while I can.
No delay, for it is plain I shall not pass this way again.

Real beauty lies not in the physical appearance,
but in the heart.

Real treasure lies not in what can be seen,
but what cannot be seen.

Real love lies not in what is done and known,
but in what is done but not known.
