Success is the result of foresight and resolution; foresight
depends upon deep thinking and planning to keep your secrets to yourself.
Whoever wants to be a leader and a guide, should educate
himself before educating others; before teaching morality to others, he should
improve his morality and character.
Interceder is the wing of the seeker.
If you are confused about good or adverse effects of an
action, then study carefully the cause, and you will know the effect.
Acquire wisdom and truth from whomever you can because if a
wise saying is in the bosom of a hypocrite it flutters till it comes out and
settles with its own category in the bosom of the believer.
The value of a man depends upon the art and skill which he
has attained.
No one should repose hope save in his Lord; no one should
fear anything save his sin; no one
should feel ashamed of saying “I do not know” when he asked about a matter which
he does not know; no one should feel ashamed of learning a thing which he does
not know and should practice endurance, because endurance is for belief what
the head is for the body, so that just there is no good in a body without the
head there is no good in belief without endurance.
One who imagines himself to be all knowing will surely
suffer on account of his ignorance.
I appreciate an old man’s cautious opinion more than the valor
of a young man.
I wonder about a man who loses hope of salvation when the
door of repentance is open for him.
There are two things in this world which softened the Wrath
of God and prevented its descent upon man. The one which has been taken away is
the person of the Noble Messenger (s.a.w.a.s.) and the one which is still with
them is repentance and atonement for sins.
Whoever keeps his affairs in order with God (follows His
orders sincerely) God will also put his affairs with men in order.
He is the wisest man who advises people not to lose hope in
the mercy of God and not to be overconfident of immunity from His Wrath and
punishment.
The hearts get weary as bodies get weary; so, look for
beautiful wise sayings for them.
The lowest form of knowledge is that which remains on the
tongue and the most superior form is that which manifests itself through (the
action) of the limbs and the organs of the body.
Action accompanied by fear of Allah does not fail; and how
can a thing fail which has been accepted.
Sleeping in a state of firm belief is better than praying in
the state of doubtfulness.
When you hear a tradition evaluate it with the criterion of
intelligence not that of mere hearing because relators of knowledge are numerous
but there are few who ponder over them and try to fully grasp the meaning.
He heard a man recite, “We belong to God and our return is
towards Him” He said, “Our saying, ‘Inna Lillah’ (verily we are Allah’s) is an
admission of His Majesty over us and our saying ‘wa Inna ilaihi rajiun’ (and
verily to Him we shall return) is an admission of our being mortal.
