People of Wisdom

"People with Wisdom know that it is important to correct their own mistakes, while people without wisdom find it necessary to point out the mistakes of others.

People with strong Faith know that it is important to clear their own Hearts, while those with unsteady faith seek to find fault in the hearts and prayers of others.

This becomes a habit in their lives.

But those who Pray to Allah with Faith, Determination, and Certitude know that the most important thing in Life is to Surrender their Hearts to Allah."

Sufi Saint
Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (r.a)

Wisdom - Jalaluddin Rumi

Wisdom is like the rain. Its source is unlimited, but it comes down according to the season. Grocers put sugar in a bag, but their supply of sugar is not the amount in the bag. When you come to a grocer, he has sugar in abundance. But he sees how much money you have brought and gives accordingly. Your currency on this Path is resolution and faith, and you are taught according to your resolution and faith. When you come seeking sugar, they examine your bag to see what its capacity is; then they measure out accordingly.

- Jalaluddin Rumi
