"The Qur'an is like a bride.
Although you pull
the veil away from her face,
she does not show herself to you.
When you investigate the Qur'an,
but receive no joy or mystical unveiling,
it is because your pulling at the veil
has caused you to be rejected.
The Qur'an has deceived you
and shown itself as ugly. It says,
"I am not a beautiful bride."
It is able to show itself
in any form it desires.
But if you stop pulling at its veil
and seek its good pleasure;
if you water its field, serve it from afar
and strive in that which pleases it,
then it will show you its face
without any need for you to draw aside its veil." – Rumi –

Translation by William C Chittick,
 
Why is it that Allah doesn't answer our prayers, we've been praying for a longtime, why doesn't He answer our prayers?

It is because you know Allah but you don't obey Him, and you know the Prophet but you don't follow his sunnah, and you know the Qu'ran but you don't act upon it and you eat from the blessings of Allah but you are not thankful for those blessings, and you know paradise but you are not striving to get to it, and you know the fire of hell but you're not running away from it, and you know shaytan but you don't fight him, and you know death but you do not prepare for it.
 
The highest reward for a man's toil
is not what he gets for it but what he becomes by it.
- John Ruskin
 
The value of the average conversation could be enormously improved
by the constant use of four simple words: "I do not know."
- Andre Maurois
 
I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God
who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect
has intended us to forgo their use.
- Galileo Galilei

When a friend is in trouble,
