Abu Hazim Salamah bin Dinar:
"No servant of Allah mends what is between him and Allah, except that Allah mends what is between him and other servants. And he does not spoil what is between him and Allah, except that Allah spoils what is between him and the servants of Allah. Working for the sake of ones face is easier than working for the sake of all faces. For if you work for the sake of that Face [the Face of Allah], all faces will turn to you. But if you spoil it, all faces will the detest you."
(Abu Nu'aym, al-Hilya 3/239)Once a pious man was asked, "Teach me how to love Allah," to which he said, "Loving Allah is not brought about by teaching."
[Ibn Qayyim said In Al Fawa'id]"One of the consequences of sinning is that they take away the shyness which is the life of the heart and the source to all good.'
- Ibn Qayyim al Jawziyyah'A learned man who doesn’t restrain his passions is like a blind man holding a torch, he guides others but not himself.'
-Shaykh Sa’diSufyân ath-Thawrî (rahimahullâh) used to be overjoyed if he saw a beggar at his door saying, “Welcome to the one who has come to wash my sins.”“If a sin is committed in private, it only harms the one who does it, but if it is committed in public and no one objects and changes it, it will harm everyone!”
— Umar ibn Al-Khattaab RadiAllahu Anhu'The real journey is when the world’s dimension is rolled away from you so that you see the Hereafter closer to you than yourself.'
-Ibn Ata’Allah“My Lord, how gentle You are with me in spite of my great ignorance, and how merciful You are with me in spite of my ugly deeds”
-Ibn Ata’Allah“One who loves for people to speak good of him, [while unconcerned about how he stands with God], has attained neither true God Consciousness nor sincerity in religion”
- Ibrahim bin Adham“Whosoever loves that Allâh should open-up his heart for him and grant light to him, then let him abandon speech about that, which does not concern him, and abandon sins and turn away from acts of disobedience. Then there will be between him and Allâh a hidden treasure of good actions. So if this is done, then Allâh will open up such knowledge for him that will pre¬occupy him. And indeed in death is the greatest pre-occupation.”
