"As long as you are performing prayer, you are knocking at the door of Allaah, and whoever is knocking at the door of Allaah, Allaah will open it for him."
(Ibn al-Qayyim )

Abu Bakr (r.a.) said, "Do not get elated at any victory, for all such victory is subject to the will of God."

Shaikh Al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah (may Allah bless his soul) said:
“It is strange that a person may find it easy to protect himself from eating Haraam, oppression and injustice, adultery, theft, drinking Khamr, and from unlawful looking, but it is hard for him to restrain the movement of his tongue. How often do we see people who are very cautious about falling into shameful deeds or injustice, but their tongue lashes against the living and the dead and they don’t mind it?”
He further said: “Some people have the disease of criticizing all the time. They forget the good about others and only mention their faults. They are like flies that avoid the good and pure places and land on the bad places and on wounds. This is because of the evil within the self and the spoiled nature.”

" Renew your hearts with the remembrance of Allah because it rushes into forgetfulness. "

(Yahya ibn Muaz RA)

" Renew your hearts with the remembrance of Allah because it rushes into forgetfulness. "

(Yahya ibn Muaz RA)

Good Admonish thanks for it.

It is reported that Sufyân b. Uyainah Allâh have mercy on him said,
"The intelligent person is not one who merely knows what is good and what is bad.
The intelligent person is one who, when he sees what is good, follows it, and when he sees evil, shuns it."

Abû Nuaym, Hilyah Al-Awliyâ`, Vol. 4 p16.

"Iman is what settles in the heart and it is proven by Actions"

[Ibnu Al Qayyim Al Jawzi]

"(The righteous are those) who feed the poor, the orphan and the captive for the love of God, saying: 'We feed you for the sake of God Alone; we seek from you neither reward nor thanks.' "
- The Holy Quran, 76:8-9

Imam al-Shafi'i said:
“A wise man once wrote to another wise man:
‘O my brother, you have indeed been given knowledge,
so do not pollute your knowledge with the darkness of sins
such that you remain in darkness on the Day that the
people of knowledge speed forth with the light of their knowledge.’ ”

"Never have I ever dealt with anything more difficult than my own soul, which sometimes helps me and sometimes opposes me."

[ Imam al-Ghazali ]

"The believer speaks little, but does much.
And the hypocrite talks a lot, but does little.
The believer's speech is wisdom, his silence is contemplation, his gaze is pondering, his actions are righteous.
So if this is your state, you shall perpetually be in worship."
- Fudayl bin Iyyad

When you intend to do something, Say "Insha-Allah"[If Allah wills]

Allâh (subhanahu wa ta'aala) says:

"And never say of anything, "I shall do such and such thing tomorrow." Except (with the saying), "Insha-Allah!", "
[Quran 18:23-24]

Ibn Al-Jowzee said,
“If this World was not a station of tests it would not be filled with sicknesses and filth.
If life was not about hardship, then the Prophets and the pious would have lived the most comfortable of lives.
Nay, Aadam[As] suffered test after test until he left the World. Nuh[As] (Noah) cried for 300 years. Ibrahim [As] (Abraham) was thrown into a pit of fire and later asked to slaughter his son. Ya’qub[As] (Jacob) cried until he became blind. Musa[As] (Moses) challenged Fir’own and was tested by his people. Isa[As] (Jesus) had no provision except the morsels his disciples provided him with. And Muhammad sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam met poverty with patience, his uncle,one of the most beloved relatives to him, was slain and mutilated and his people disbelieved in him,
And the list of Prophets and the pious goes on and on.”

"You cannot direct the wind but you can adjust the sails."
~ Sheikh Reda Bedeir ~

Imaam Shaafi (rahmatullah alayh) states that Imaam Maalik
(rahmatullah alayh) told him,
“O Muhammad! You should
practice in proportion to flour (in bread) and
your knowledge should be the salt.”

That is, much action must be carried out on little knowledge. Here action refers to etiquette.

[center]"When it comes to my provisions, I rely upon Allah, my Creator
And I know with certainty that He will no doubt provide for me.
Whatever’s in my due, will not pass me by,
Even if it were to be in the depths of the sea.
Allah the Exalted will bring it forth by His Grace,
Even if I were to remain silent over it.
So, what can a soul feel sorrow over,
When the Most Merciful has set the provisions of the creation?"

- Imam al-Shafi’i[/center]

Zainul Aabideen (Rahmatullah alaih) said,
"The pride of a proud person surprises me.
The day before, he was a drop of a dirty fluid and
tomorrow he will be a corpse, and still he is proud."
[He used to help the poor in the darkness of night, so that they should not even know who helped them. It came to light only after his
death that no less than one hundred families were being supported by him.]
