I looked at all friends, and did not find a better friend than safeguarding the tongue. I thought about all dresses, but did not find a better dress than piety. I thought about all types of wealth, but did not find a better wealth than contentment in little. I thought of all types of good deeds, but did not find a better deed than offering good advice. I looked at all types of sustenance, but did not find a better sustenance than patience.

Fear Allah, for He alone lives; all other things are liable to perish.

If patience and gratitude had been she camels, it would have mattered little on which I rode.

Sometimes the people with the worst past, create the best future

Be dignified, honest and truthful.

Do not be deceived by a man's eloquence; rather whoever fulfils trusts and refrains from impugning people's honour is a real man.

When a man puts me a question, I judge of his intelligence.
