Wisdom From the Shaykh of Shaykhs - Group 3
25.) This
world is prohibited to the people of the next world, and the next world is forbidden to
the people of this world, and they are both forbidden to the people of Allah.
26.) All
Muslims are like the component parts of a foundation --- each strengthens the other. In
such a way must Muslims support each other.
27.) The
right and the left are both ways of error, and the straight path is the middle way.
28.) The
hearts of all of the children of Adam (peace be upon him) are like a single heart between
two of the fingers of the All-Merciful, and the All-merciful twists this heart in whatever
way is willed.
29.)
People are asleep, and when they die, they awake.
30.) God
surely rejoices more through the repentance of one of the servants of Allah, than any of
you rejoice when you find your stray camel in the desert.
31.)
Surely, your soul has a right against you; your Lord has a right against you; your guest
has a right against you, and your wife has a right against you. So, give to each one who
possesses a right against you.
32.) What
actions are most excellent? To gladden the heart of a human being; to feed the hungry; to
help the afflicted; to lighten the sorrow of the sorrowful, and to remove the wrongs of
the injured.
33.) Hell
is veiled in delights, and Heaven is veiled in hardships and miseries.
34.)
Everyone of you is a guardian, and everyone of you shall be questioned about that which
you are guarding.
35.) Do
not give wisdom to other that the people of wisdom for you will be doing the wisdom an
injustice, and do not prevent the people of wisdom from obtaining it and, thereby, do them
an injustice.
36.) This
world is a prison for the faithful, but it is a paradise for unbelievers.
