When people wear you out, spend some time in isolation with Allah and your relationship with Him will improve as well as with the people.

Being unashamedly Muslim while excelling in whatever you do is of the greatest forms of Dawah.

I tell people this over and over again: don't attach your faith to people. People will come and go. People will disappoint you. People will divulge dark secrets. People will turn out to be the opposite of what you thought. Allah is perfect. His Messenger (peace be upon him) is a perfect example, and the religion is a perfect methodology. Attach yourself to the principles instead of the people. That way no Shaykh going wild or role model going rogue will be able to shake your faith.

When you give, expect nothing from people and everything from Allah.

When Allah loves you, He places the love of you in the hearts of the people whose love is worth having.

Allah is Most Merciful even when He sends us trials, for even His punishment is for our own good.
