Thy lot or portion of life is seeking after thee; therefore be at rest from seeking after it.
Ali ibn Abi TalibFear the sins that you commit in secret, because the Witness of those sins is the Judge Himself!
Ali ibn Abi TalibIn this world, man is a target of death, an easy prey to calamities, here every morsel and every draught is liable to choke one, here one never receives a favour until he loses another instead, here every additional day in one's life is a day reduced from the total span of his existence, when death is the natural outcome of life, how can we expect immortality.
