Sitting with the poor and less fortunate people removes the ego and pride from your heart.

Happiness is attained by three things: being patient when tested, being thankful when receiving a blessing, and being repentant upon sinning.

The sea of pleasures may drown its owner and the swimmer fears to open his eyes under the water.

If you knew the true value of yourself, you will never allow yourself to be humiliated by committing sins.

And if a person were given all of the world and what is in it, it would not fill his emptiness.

Had Allah lifted the veil for his slave and shown him how He handles his affairs for him, and how Allah is more keen for the benefit of the slave than his own self, his heart would have melted out of the love for Allah and would have been torn to pieces out of thankfulness to Allah. Therefore if the pains of this world tire you, do not grieve. For it may be that Allah wishes to hear your voice by way of Dua'a. So pour out your desires in prostration and forget about it and know; that verily Allah does not forget it.

A person’s tongue can give you the taste of his heart.
