There's a statement in the Quran: There should be "absolutely no compulsion in religion."

The weak are dominated by their ego, the wise dominate their ego, and the intelligent are in a constant struggle against their ego.

If you take a child and you throw the child up there is a point where you see this, they go into this state of complete panic and then when they come back to your arms they are laughing. That is dunya, I guarantee you, that moment, that is your life, you came from God and you are going back to God and there is just a moment when you are in a complete state of panic but just relax, you are in good hands. Just relax.

When paying charity, one should smile and be humble, allowing the hand of the indigent to be above the giver's hand.

Muhammad Ali put an end to the idea that you can't be an American and a Muslim.

People say to you, 'you've changed', or something like that, well, I hope, for the sake of God, that you have changed, because I don't want to be the same person all my life. I want to be growing, I want to be expanding. I want to be changing. Because animate things change, inanimate things don&'t change. Dead things don't change. And the heart should be alive, it should be changing, it should be moving, it should be growing, its knowledge should be expanding.
