Ibn al Qayyim رحمه الله said:
There is nothing more beloved to Shaitan than the sadness of a believer.
Therefore, rejoice, be hopeful, remain optimistic, and think well of Allāh, so that you may enjoy peace of mind.
📓-[Ṭariq al-Hijratayn (1/279)]
Shaykh Ibn 'Uthaymin (رحمه الله) said:
"The affairs of the women, in reality, are in the houses.
As for seeking wealth, fighting in the cause of Allāh, and whatever has to do with public matters, they are for men alone."
Sharh Al-Iqtidā p. 204
Ibn al-Qayyim رحمہ اللہ said:
“If someone repents from sin then in terms of consequences it is as if it never occurred.”
[Tareeq al-Hijratayn (p. 231)]
Imām Ibn al-Qayyim (رحمه الله) said:
"By Allāh, every hardship becomes easy, every difficulty becomes simple, and every distant thing becomes near; and by Allāh, worries, anxieties, and sorrows disappear, for there is no worry, no anxiety, and no sorrow when one is with Allāh."
Abū al-Dardā’ (may Allāh be pleased with him) used to say:
"Fast a day of intense heat for the heat of the Day of Resurrection, and pray two units of prayer (rak‘atayn) in the darkness of the night for the darkness of the grave."
📚Laṭā’if Al-Ma‘ārif by Ibn Rajab al-Ḥanbalī
Shaykh Salih Al-Fawzān (حفظه الله):
"If you want to be successful and happy then seek knowledge (of the Deen of Allāh) and act upon it.
You will be happy and successful by the will of Allah."
[📚Sharh Mandhūmah al-Ihsā'ī, pg. 13]
O Allah, forgive me for what they do not know about me, rectify me in what they do know, and make me better than they think I am.
May Allah conceal our faults, forgive our hidden shortcomings, purify our hearts, and make our private selves better than our public selves.
Ibn ʿAbbās (رضي الله عنهما) said:
“It is disliked for a man to stand for prayer while he is lazy. Rather, he should come to it with a cheerful face, strong desire, and great joy. For indeed, he is conversing privately with Allah, and Allah is before him.
Ibn Taymiyyah رحمه الله said:
"The most virtuous physical acts of worship are the prayer, then recitation [of the Qur'an], then dhikr, then supplication."
