“Absorption in worldly affairs breeds darkness in the heart, and absorption in the affairs of the next world breeds light in the heart.”

 

“Acquire wisdom from the story of those who have already passed.”

 

“Three worldly things have been made dear to me: feeding the hungry, clothing the naked and reading the Qur'an.”

 

“If the hearts are pure, they will never have enough from reciting Allah's words (the Qur'an).”

 

“Enjoin what is good and forbid what is evil before the worst amongst you are given authority over you and then when even the best of you make dua against them, their duas will not be accepted.”
