Al-Hasan al-Basree, raHimahullaah, said:


"Whoever learns something in the name of Allaah, seeking that which is with Him, he will win. And whoever learns something for other than Allaah, he will not reach the goal, nor will his acquired knowledge bring him closer to Allaah."

Inform Him of what is in your heart but know that He Knows. He Knew what was, what is, and what will be, in this universe and in those chambers of your heart, those paths through your soul. But call out to Him and beseech Him because just as you love to be heard, He loves to be called. Just as you love to be given, He loves to be asked. Just as you love to be forgiven, He loves to grant you that forgiveness. He is your Lord, Maker, and Protector, and He is close to you. Know Him and strengthen your bond and connection with Him because nobody, absolutely nobody will be there for you as much as He is there and will always be there…

SubhanAllah. Beautiful.

“Prayer is that which enables the soul to realize its divinity. Through prayer human beings worship absolute truth, and seek an eternal reward. Prayer is the foundation-stone of religion; and religion is the means by which the soul is purified of all that pollutes it.


Prayer is the worship of the first cause of all things, the supreme ruler of all the world, the source of all strength. Prayer is the adoration of the one whose being is necessary.”



Ibn Sina
[excerpt from Kitab al-Najat]

Something to ponder given all our despots open their arms to the kaffirs and aid them against us.

12:12:12 12/12/12 is one second that the world gets so excited about.

It passes just like every fraction of time does.

Lesson is, "Time is valuable, don't waste a single second, it will not return."

~Mufti Ismail Menk

A bachelor asked a wise man: 'Is it true that calamities and tribulations don't come until one marries a wife?'

The wise man replied: 'On the contrary, when calamities come, only then one appreciates the value of a righteous wife. If you think you are happy while you are a bachelor, you do not know what happiness is. Happiness can't be achieved without your better half!'

As you start to walk out on the way, the way appears. ~Rumi
 
^ Like Rumi too.

Let's get away from all the clever humans
who put words in our mouth
let's only say what our hearts desire.

Rumi
 

"There are a lot of people who just want to get into an argument with you – its social pathology.
People without self-knowledge, any critical introspection where they have to look at themselves, think about their behaviour and how they are responding.


The Quraan is a mirror – it holds itself up to humanity and says find yourself in there!
Because I guarantee you – you are in there.
You might be pharaoh, you might be Haman, you might be Qaroon, you might be Aasiyah…..you might be the abused wife in a bad relationship.

....

You may find an amalgam – I have a little bit of this or that.

But you will find yourself in the Quraan."
~ Sheikh Hamza Yusuf ~

Imam al-Darani (rh) was once asked, "What is the greatest deed that a slave can do to get closer to Allah `azza wa jall?"

He weeped and said, "That Allah should look to your heart and see that you do not desire anything of this world or the Hereafter except Him."
