How many gifts and graces You have given me! How many favors You have fed me from your hand! I look for your love in all directions, then suddenly its blessing burns in me.

I love Allah: I have no time left in which to hate the devil.

I will not serve Allah like a laborer, in expectation of my wages.

True devotion is for itself: not to desire heaven nor to fear hell.

I seek forgiveness from Allah for the lack of my sincerity when I say I seek the forgiveness of Allah

Since no one really knows anything about God, those who think they do are just troublemakers.

O Beloved of Hearts, I beseech only You. Have pity this day on those who turn to You. My Hope, my Rest, my Delight, this heart can love none other but You.
