poeticislam:

The love of Allah is a light that if you are without it you are in ocean of darkness It is medicine or cure that if you are without it your heart becomes a place of sickness.

(Ibn Qayyim al Jawziyya)

poeticislam:

[“Jaami al-Ulum wal-Hukam”, 1/165].

ondaroof:

Hatim Al-Asam was once asked how he was humble during prayer

he said:

“I stand and say Allah Akbar

imagine Al-Kaaba in front of my eyes,

the path “Sirat” under my feet,

the heaven in my right,

the hell in my left,

Death Angel behind me,

The messenger of Allah pondering upon my prayer,

think of it as if it is my last prayer so i say Allah Akbar in glorification,

I read in meditation,

I Kneel with subjecting,

I Prostrate in humility,

I pray fearing of Allah and wishing his mercy,

and I greet not knowing if it is accepted or not”
