To be human is erroneous.
In any nation, the hypocrites do not become apparent except during times of fitnah (severe tests and hardships).
There are some people who could hear you speak a thousand words, and still not understand you. . . And there are others who will understand - without you even speaking a word.
I am always shocked to discover how many people believe that hardships are a punishment from God! When people face tests or see others facing tests, they assume Allah must be angry with them. SubhannAllah! Remember which people were tested the most: The Prophets! And they were the closest to Allah. Every hardship is good for you-if it brings you closer to Him!
Do you ever wonder why often you can't have the things you want most? Perhaps if you got them in this life, they would distract you from Him. Perhaps He withholds some things that you love in this life to keep your heart from being distracted. . . and then gives those things to you in the next. Forever.
Allah manages everything in the heavens and earth—the sun, the moon, the stars—with perfection, and yet we don’t trust Him to manage our lives!
It is in that which you love the most that you find the greatest tests.
A man makes inferiors his superiors by heat; self control is the rule. Anger is an uncontrollable feeling that betrays what you are when you are not yourself. Anger is that powerful internal force that blows out the light of reason. Know this to be the enemy: it is anger, born of desire.
I seriously doubt I would ever have written the first story had I not been a lawyer. I never dreamed of being a writer. I wrote only after witnessing a trial.
I entered (into my inward self) and beheld with the eye of my soul. . . the Light Unchangeable.
I have a big problem with piped music. I like either silence or to listen to it properly.
