The beginning of knowledge is the intention, then listening, then understanding, then action, then preservation, and then spreading it.

I love the saliheen (pious people) even though I’m not one of them, and I hate the taliheen (evil people) even though I (may be) worse than them.

The beginning of knowledge is the intention, then listening, then understanding, then action, then preservation, and then spreading it.

If you desire the path of sincerity, develop a love for obscurity. Flee from the clatter and clinks of fame. Be like the roots of a tree; it keeps the tree upright and gives it life, but it itself is hidden underneath the earth and eyes cannot see it.

I spent thirty years learning manners, and I spent twenty years learning knowledge.

We are a people in more need of a little character than we are in need of an abundance of knowledge.
