Solitude is necessary for the believer to reflect on their deeds, and refine their heart.

Indeed Allah سبحانه وتعالى is always there, even when everything in your life turns upside down, have faith in Him and hold on to Him. Everything will be just right for He alone is enough to get us through tough times.

Realising that you're in control of your perception and gratitude is huge and a lesson that should be learned immediately.

Life is short, and a negative mindset will always find something to be sad about.

Change your perception and you can control your own happiness.

If you can change something and you have control over it, then change it. If you cannot, then adopt dua and change your perception of that thing. Find the silver lining. There is always a silver lining.

Every good that we do, we should do solely for the sake of Allah سبحانه وتعالى and we should always ask him to remove any ostentation, pride etc from our hearts.

Sometimes we do things for other people, once and then they ask us over and over and over again and we may not like it or we get tired of doing things for others.

But if we remember Allāh and remember that we'll be rewarded for every little thing then we'll have no limit to giving. You also don't know what little thing you may have done for someone that could take you to Jannah

This also doesn't mean that you don't look out for yourself and let people walk all over you. Looking out for yourself is important too.

May Allah سبحانه وتعالى accept everything that we do for His sake and reward us for every little thing in the Aakhirah. آمين يا رب العالمين

Life is a garden and trials are rain drops. At first it feels gloomy but it's worth it when the flowers bloom.

What does the word Heart mean in the Arabic language?

Shaykh Hamza Yusuf

End of the day: ʿilm does not come cheap & you'll be tested when trying to acquire it. The reason why we are patient, overlook, and continue with the struggle of ṭalab - even at the feet of those who we may not find perfect - is because we value the ʿilm more than anything else.

If you see somebody falling behind, walk beside them.

If you see somebody is being ignored, find a way to include them.

If you see somebody has been knocked done, lift them up.

Always remind people of their worth.

One small act of kindness could mean the world to someone!

Studying requires sacrifice. Those scholars who we consider to be successful are where they are because of the sacrifices they have made. It requires spending money, giving up sleep, not going out as much and most importantly making your books your companions

Get serious — about your peace.
Get serious — about your future.
Get serious — about your goals.
Get serious — about your love.
Get serious — about your faith.
Get serious — about your mental.
Get serious — about your life.
Get serious — about your soul

Simplicity in life is the key to contentment. Let what is arriving to arrive, and let that which departs to depart. Do not interrupt the flow of life. It's Qadr, and you'll be Okay.

Don't consume yourself with what has gone wrong and why it has gone wrong. It is dunya. It will never be perfect. Complete perfection lives beyond the gates of paradise, Ask your Lord each day to make you from those who enter.

The important concept of Tawfīq (divine bestowal of ability to perform an action)

[Shaykh Sa'īd Al Kamali حفظه الله]

When Allāh ﷻ chooses something for you, choose it for yourself also, wholeheartedly.

Many people cannot see the beauty of life because they doubt what their Lord has chosen for them, and so they miss out on the sweetness of Tawakkul and Submission.

Complete submission has a sweetness like no other. After all, it is what the heart has been created to do.

اللهم اهدنا لأحسن الأخلاق،
O Allāh ﷻ, guide us to the best of manners

لا يهدي لأحسنها إلا أنت،
For none can guide to the best of them but You

واصرف عنا سيِّئَها،
And protect us from bad manners

لا يصرف عنا سيِّئها إلا أنت
For none can protect against them but You

How beautiful to remain a mystery in a world full of people who have nothing left to hide
