Make tawba not just for sins you've committed, but also for obligations you haven't fulfilled.
Ibn TaymiyyahAvoiding the temptation to sin and being patient upon that, is greater than being patient whilst being afflicted with trials.
Ibn TaymiyyahImprisoned is he whose heart is imprisoned from Allรขh. Captured is he who is captured by his desires.
Ibn TaymiyyahPerpetually is the servant either the recipient of a blessing from Allaah, in which case he is need of gratitude; or he is the perpetrator of sin, in which case he is in need of repentance; he is always moving from one blessing to another and is always is in need of repentance.
Ibn TaymiyyahWhat 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 Taymiyyah
