“Learn the art of silence just as you learn to speak
for if speech is a guiding matter, then silence is a protective measure.
In silence you have two characteristics:
attaining knowledge from those more knowledgeable than you
and guarding yourself from those who are more argumentative than you.”
— Abu al-Dhayyal
(via qayyim)
“Educating a Man is educating One person but educating a Woman is educating an entire nation.”

“…But as it is, I’m like an insect that’s flown into a room of its own accord. I dash against the walls, dash against the windows, flop against the ceiling, do everything on God’s earth in fact, except fly out again. And all the while, I’m thinking, like that moth, or that butterfly, or whatever it is, ‘The shortness of life! The shortness of life! I’ve only one night or one day and there’s this vast dangerous garden, undiscovered, unexplored.”
—At The Bay, Katherine Mansfield. (via streebgreeblings)
“Two types of love will not cause you sadness. Love Lillahi (for Allah) and Fillahi (for the sake of Allah).”
