Guidance is not attained except with knowledge and correct direction is not attained except with patience.
Ibn TaymiyyahWhoever considers the Attributes of Allaah to be like the attributes of the creation, such that the Istawaa of Allaah is like the ascending of the creation, or His Descending (Nuzool) is like the descending of the creation or other than that, then he is a deviated innovator.
Ibn TaymiyyahMake tawba not just for sins you've committed, but also for obligations you haven't fulfilled.
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?
