“I seek refuge in Allah from knowledge that brings no wisdom, from a heart that lacks kindness, from desires that bring discontent, and from supplications that go unanswered.”

Words of wisdom:
Be with Allah - By Shaykh Muhammad al-Yaqoubi
To all people involved in the Syrian and Arab revolutions; to political leaders struggling for their peoples and to all Muslims under oppression: This is the right time to come back to Allah, the time to repent and return to Him and the time to beseech Him; as this is the key to our relief and the means for us to be given the authority of our ancestors and be true heirs to them. "Who else will answer the call of the distress, lift hardships and appoint you as inheritors of the earth?" Everyone should know that adversities are results of our sins and that repentance is the way to remove them. We need to also remember that all things are under the power of Allah. We have to take action as He commanded us yet with reliance on Him and after returning to Him and believing that He is the only one who could benefit or harm us, not this man or that.
This was clearly stated by the Greatest Prophet, our master PBUH when he said, "You should Know that if all people tried to extend to you a favour, they would not be able to extend but what Allah predestined for you; and similarly, if all people tried to cause you any harm, they would not be able unless Allah predetermined it against you. So be with Allah through reliance, with His Decree through contentment with it; with His command by executing it and with His creation by having mercy on them. Do not let means and actions stop your belief that Allah is the Creator of the causes and the effects; nor allow people's harm to you make you obsessed with them.
Allah suffices for you, if you stand at His door as a servant, as He clearly promised, "Is Allah not enough for His Servant?" Read the rest of the verse to find the answer to your current dilemma "and they intimidate you with others who are far less powerful than Him."
So, do not fear other than Allah as long as you are a true servant of Allah: If you are with Allah, Allah will be with you; if you run to Allah, you will be safe from everything else; if you seek support with His Signs you will superior In as much as calamities reveal man's true mettle and virtue; they demonstrate the essence of his belief, contentment, and reliance.
This is one of the most important purposes of adversities as Allah Almighty said, "We will try you to reveal who amongst you truly struggles and is patient; and to disclose your states – to others." Then Allah says, "the unbelievers who prevent people from the path to Allah, disobey the Messenger, after guidance was made clear to them, will not cause any harm to Allah; Allah will foil all their misdeeds."

Shaykh Abuu Said Abi'l Khayr:
Chun Khak Shudi khake tura khak shudam
Chun khake tura khak shudam pak shudam
because you became dust, i became the dust of your dust
because i became the dust of your dust, i became Pure
Putting Trust in Allah.. is the stage of Muttaqeen
our status is to put our trust in the dust ,
of those who became earth like in humbleness to their Lord
those who follow the path of Syedduna Muhammad (SAW)
Sheikh Bayazid Bistami was given the Title SULTAN al ARIFEEN
Some one asked, Sheikh Bayazid Bistami what is your desire
HE SAID: i desire not to desire for my will is without value
some one asked him at death bed: his last wish
HE SAID: i wish i could say Once with the purity of my heart
ASH HADU AN LA ILAHA ILALLAH WA ASH HADU ANA MUHAMMADAN ABDUHU WA RASULUHU
Awliya have been warning us about Quran
they say it is a MIRROR, when we look in to it,, we will see ourself
we should be care full, if we are ugly, then we see ugly, and we blame it on the Quran,,
Allahu Akbar...
that is why Awliya tell us to become pure and beautify ourselves before looking into the Quran... then the secrects shall open for us
May Allah Subhana Wa Ta'ala Beautify our Souls, and open for us the Secrets of the Qur'an and keep us under the feet of his saints, for that is where the Rahma Descends.
Amen

Rumi says:
sohbate Ashiq to ra Ashiq konad
Sohbate Fasiq tora Fasiq Konad
Sohbate marde Khoda Mardat Konad
Sohbate har na saza Sardat Konad
the company of a Lover will make you a Lover
the company of a Fasiq will make you a fisiq
the company of the Men of God, will make you a MAn
and the company of useless men will make you cold
that is why Awliya Allah Advise us to sit in the company
of those who have Knowledge and Hikmah
because knowledge without hikmah, is useless
and when we sit in company of those who have knowledge and hikmah, we shall gain something from them..
when we enter a Perfume shop, we will carry some sweet smell even though we might not put perfum on us..!
May Allah Subhana wa Ta'alla forgive us for our mistakes.
Amen
