If a man's patience is stronger than his whims and desires, then he is like an angel, but if his whims and desires are stronger than his patience, then he is like a devil. If his desire for food, drink and sex is stronger than his patience, then he is no better than an animal.

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?

The perfection of Tawheed is found when there remains nothing in the heart except Allaah

Be to Allah as He wishes, and He will be to you more than you can wish for.

Sins have many side-effects. One of them is that they steal knowledge from you.

Patience is that the heart does not feel anger towards that which is destined and that the mouth does not complain.

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