Men mixing with women is like fire mixing with wood.
Ibn Taymiyyah
Dhikr (remembrance of Allah) is to the heart as water is to a fish see what happens to a fish when it is taken out of water
Ibn Taymiyyah
You should not look at what the person used to do, rather you should look at what kind of person they are today. The one who gets bogged down about people's pasts, is just like Iblees who said to Allaah, “You created me from fire and you created him from clay”.
Ibn Taymiyyah
The disease that knowledge brings is arrogance, and the disease that worship brings is showing off
Ibn Taymiyyah
What can my enemies do to me? My paradise is in my heart, it is with me wherever I go. To imprison me is to provide me with seclusion. To send me into exile is to send me away in the Path of Allah. And to kill me is to make me a martyr.
Ibn Taymiyyah
Perpetually is the servant either the recipient of a blessing from Allaah, in which case he is need of gratitude or he is the perpetrator of sin, in which case he is in need of repentance he is always moving from one blessing to another and is always is in need of repentance.
Ibn Taymiyyah
Allah guards the justice loving government, even if it is the government of non-Muslims, and destroys the tyrant government, even if it is the government of Muslims.
Ibn Taymiyyah
Sins cause harm and repentance removes the cause
Ibn Taymiyyah
Contentment is the greatest door that one enters to Allah, it is the source of tranquility for the worshiper and paradise on earth. Whoever does not enter it will not enter the Paradise in the Hereafter.
Ibn Taymiyyah
A believer to another believer is like two hands, one washes the other (correcting each other).
Ibn Taymiyyah
Whatever is not done by the permission of Allah will not happen, and what is not done for the sake of Allah will not benefit or remain.
Ibn Taymiyyah
Remembrance is to the heart what water is to the fish. And what is the state of a fish that leaves water?
Ibn Taymiyyah
If you do good in secret, Allah will shower His good on you in public.
Ibn Taymiyyah
Some people have the disease of criticising all the time. They forget the good about others and only mention their faults. They are like flies that avoid the good and pure places and land on the bad and wounds. This is because of the evil within the self and the spoiled nature.
Ibn Taymiyyah
What can my enemies do to me? I have in my breast both my Heaven and my Garden. If I travel they are with me, and they never leave me. Imprisonment for me is a religious retreat [khalwa]. To be slain for me is martyrdom [shahada] And to be exiled from my land is a spiritual journey [siyaha].
Ibn Taymiyyah
If you correct your hidden deeds subsequently, Allaah will correct your outward deeds.
Ibn Taymiyyah
Imprisoned is he whose heart is imprisoned from Allâh. Captured is he who is captured by his desires.
Ibn Taymiyyah
Make tawba not just for sins you've committed, but also for obligations you haven't fulfilled.
Ibn Taymiyyah
As for the people of Tasawwuf, they affirm the love of Allah, and this is more evident among them than all other issues....the affirmation of the love of Allah is well-known in the speech of their [old] and recent masters, just as it is affirmed in the Holy Qur'an and the Sunnah and in agreement of the ways of the early generation (Salaf)
Ibn Taymiyyah
Through patience and certainty, leadership in the religion is obtained.
Ibn Taymiyyah
