When Allah inspires your tongue to ask, know that He wants to give

The realization of 'La ilaha illa Allah' is one of the states of the heart that can be neither expressed by the tongue nor thought out by the mind.

So long as you are in this world, be not surprised at the existence of sorrows.

Actions are but lifeless forms whose soul is the secret of sincerity in them

The gnosis of God is intermediate between immoderation, which is ascribing human characteristics to God, and negligence, which is denying any attributes to God. . . The Truth lies in the balance between the two extremes.

The reality of the invocation is when the Invoked takes possession of the heart, and He is One. Separation and multiplicity exist before that for as long as the invoker is in the station of invoking with the tongue or with the heart.

One of the signs of relying on deeds is loss of hope when a misstep occurs.
