This visible world is a trace of that invisible one and the former follows the latter like a shadow.
Al-GhazaliNeglect not your time, nor use it haphazardly; on the contrary you should bring yourself to account. Structure your litanies and other practices during each day and night. This is how to bring about the spiritual blessing (baraka) in each period. If each of your breaths is a priceless jewel, Be not like the deceived fools who are joyous because each day their wealth increases while their life grows ever shorter.
Al-GhazaliIf your busy with yourself now, you will be busy with yourself then. If you are busy with Allah now, you will be with Him then.
Al-GhazaliWhoever determines the truth from people alone will remain lost in the plains of bewilderment. Rather, know the truth, and you will know its people.
