What can you do with me? My jannah is in my heart! If you take me to jail, I will make zikr of Allah. If you exile me out of my land, I will make takaffur. If you execute me, I would be a shaheed. What can you do with me? Because I am not limited to this dunya. I am living for al-akhira!
Ibn TaymiyyahAllah will support the just state even if it is led by unbelievers, but Allah will not support the oppressive state even if it is led by believers
Ibn TaymiyyahThe one who is [truly] imprisoned is the one whose heart is imprisoned from Allah and the captivated one is the one whose desires have enslaved him.
Ibn TaymiyyahThe disease that knowledge brings is arrogance, and the disease that worship brings is showing off
Ibn TaymiyyahDhikr (remembrance of Allah) is to the heart as water is to a fish; see what happens to a fish when it is taken out of water
Ibn TaymiyyahIt is strange that a person may find it easy to protect himself from: eating Haraam, oppression and injustice, adultery, theft, drinking khamr (alcoholic drinks), and from unlawful looking, but it is hard for him to restrain the movement of his tongue. How often do we see people who are very cautious about falling into shameful deeds or injustice, but their tongue lashes against the living and the dead and they don't mind it?
Ibn Taymiyyah
