As long as you are performing prayer, you are knocking at the door of Allah, and whoever is knocking at the door of Allah, Allah will open it for him.

Yearning for Allah and His meeting is like the gentle breeze blowing upon the heart, extinguishing the blaze of the Dunya. Whosoever caused his heart to settle with his Lord shall be in a state, calm and tranquility, and whosoever sent it amongst the people shall be disturbed and excessively perturbed.

How is it possible for one’s heart to be certain that one is going to meet Allah, that Allah sees and hears all that he does, and knows his secret open affairs, and that he will be made to stand before Allah, answerable for all his deeds - how can one be certain and aware of all of this, and yet persist upon things which displease Allah; persist upon abandoning Allah’s orders, neglecting His rights, and yet claim that he has good expectation of Allah?

If you wish to check how much you love Allah, then see how much your heart loves the Quran, and you will know the answer.

There are no means of attaining faith and certainty except through the Qur'an.

The keys to the life of the heart lie in reflecting upon the Quran, being humble before Allah in secret, and leaving sins.

The heart will rest and feel relief if it is settled with Allah. And it will worry and feel anxious if it is settled with the people.
