How strange! You lose a little from you and you cry. And your whole life is wasting and you're laughing
Ibn Qayyim Al-JawziyyaTruly in the heart there is a void that can not be removed except with the company of Allah. And in it there is a sadness that can not be removed except with the happiness of knowing Allah and being true to Him. And in it there is an emptiness that can not be filled except with love for Him and by turning to Him and always remembering Him. And if a person were given all of the world and what is in it, it would not fill this emptiness.
Ibn Qayyim Al-JawziyyaThe sea of pleasures may drown its owner and the swimmer fears to open his eyes under the water.
Ibn Qayyim Al-JawziyyaSitting with the poor and less fortunate people removes the ego and pride from your heart.
Ibn Qayyim Al-JawziyyaThere are six stages to knowledge: Firstly: Asking questions in a good manner. Secondly: Remaining quiet and listening attentively. Thirdly: Understanding well. Fourthly: Memorising. Fifthly: Teaching. Sixthly- and it is its fruit: Acting upon the knowledge and keeping to its limits.
