Words of wisdom from inspiring people
"Ilm (knowledge) is not memorization of lines from a book or storing mass information in memory, a computer can hold masses and masses of information, rather knowledge is internalization of the sacred texts, knowledge is presence of Rūh (soul) and Hāl (state), information that is not internalized and practiced is just information, not real Ilm and has no benefit, the whole purpose is to be transformed."
- Sayyidi Shaykh Dr. Muhammad bin Yahya al-Husayni al-Ninowy

The Prophet Muhammad's (PBUH) Last Sermon
After praising, and thanking Allah he said:
"O People, lend me an attentive ear, for I know not whether after this year, I shall ever be amongst you again. Therefore listen to what I am saying to you very carefully and TAKE THESE WORDS TO THOSE WHO COULD NOT BE PRESENT HERE TODAY.
Believe in yourself
For those who are not feeling themselves, need a bit of inspiration, need to do something but cant be bothered, feeling "burnt out" or just feel the need to read something. I need some inspirational to do some very very boring work at the moment and I seem to be finding other "interesting" stuff to do :
THERE may be days when you get up in the morning and things aren’t the way you had hoped they would be.
That’s when you have to tell yourself that things will get better. There are times when people disappoint you and let you down.
Lifebites 1
Salaam
As part of a project I'm working on I decided to write some short pieces. Snapshots of life that are useful to see. I call them, 'lifebites'.
This is #1. I wrote it after thinking that the...
...difference between a painting and a photograph is that they both capture something beautiful, But a photo locks it away forever like a bird in a cage or a butterfly under glass. Whereas a painting captures but also sets free like a beautiful lifechanging moment that whilst intense is fresh every time its experienced.
Hope its useful. Enjoy.
