And verily for everything that a slave loses there is a substitute, but the one who loses Allah will never find anything to replace Him.
Ibn Qayyim Al-JawziyyaWhoever mocks his brother for a sin they repented from will not die till he himself falls into the same sin.
Ibn Qayyim Al-JawziyyaThe hijrah to Allah includes abandoning what He hates and doing what He loves and accepts.
Ibn Qayyim Al-JawziyyaThe keys to the life of the heart lie in reflecting upon the Quran, being humble before Allah in secret, and leaving sins.
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-JawziyyaHad 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.
Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyya
