Blessed sayings of Islamic saints

Wise sayings

The Inheritors of Heaven

The inheritors of the land of Heaven are the people who perform all five Salah with the congregation. (Saying of Sayyiduna Abdullah Bin Abbas رَضِیَ اللّٰهُ عَنْهُمَا) (Husn-ut-Tanbih, vol. 3, pp. 209)

Importance of Intention

A (good) intention makes many little deeds big, whereas, a (bad) intention makes many big deeds little. (Saying of Sayyiduna Abdullah Bin Mubarak رَحْمَةُ اللّٰهُ عَلَيْه) (Siyar-e-A’laam-un-Nubala, vol. 7, pp. 616)

Only an Islamic Scholar can be a Friend of Allah

If the Islamic scholars are not the friends of Allah, then nobody else is. (Saying of Imam Abu Hanifah and Imam Shaafi’i رَحْمَةُ اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِمَا) (Hayat-ul-Haywan, vol. 2, pp. 19)

First Shari’ah

Salah has been made obligatory since the blessed day of first revelation. The moment the revelation came down to the Holy Prophet صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم for the first time and the Prophethood was declared, the Holy Prophet صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم performed Salah after being told by Jibraeel-e-Ameen عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام. On the same day, Umm-ul-Mu`mineen, Sayyidatuna Khadija-tul-Kubra رَضِىَ اللّٰهُ عَـنْها performed Salah after being taught by the Holy Prophet صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. The next day, Ameer-ul-Mu’mineen Ali-ul-Murtada رَضِىَ اللّٰهُ عَـنْهُ performed Salah with the Holy Prophet صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. By this time, Surah Muzzammil had not been revealed. Hence, after Iman (faith), the first Shari’ah is Salah. (Fatawa Razawiyyah, vol. 5, pp. 83)

The Prophet of Prophets صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم

Indeed, all the Prophets عَـلَيْـهِمُ الـسَّـلَام are the Ummati of the Holy Prophet صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. The prophethood was bestowed upon them when they had been made the Ummati of the Holy Prophet صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. (Fatawa Razawiyyah, vol. 5, pp. 66)

If you wish to live, gain some recognition

Good or bad is not written on the face of anyone. Most of the times, the outward appearance is against the inner self, especially in this era of trouble. (Fatawa Razawiyyah, vol. 22, pp. 232)

What to eat to break the Fast?

Some people think that it is necessary to break the fast with a date, water, or salt. It is not the fact. One can break the fast with any food or drink. However, breaking the fast with a date or water is Sunnah. (Madani Muzakarah, 18 Ramadan-ul-Mubarak, 1437 AH)

Reforming someone through Social Media

Wherever necessary, one can certainly reform someone publicly. But nowadays, in the name of reformation, some unwise people expose the faults of a Muslim to thousands of people through social media, causing disrespect to the Muslim. (Madani Muzakarah, 5 Muharram-ul-Haraam, 1441 AH)

Performing Umrah with Borrowed Money

It is permissible to perform Umrah with borrowed money, but we should avoid it. Because although some people perform Umrah with borrowed money, later on, when they are unable to pay it back, then they avoid meeting the people. (Madani Muzakarah, 19 Ramadan-ul-Mubarak, 1437)
