consult your heart....

"Consult your heart. Righteousness is that about which the soul feels at ease and the heart tranquil. And wrongdoing is that which wavers in the soul and causes uneasiness in the breast even though people have repeatedly given their legal opinion in its favor."
And he said:
"Righteousness is in good character and wrongdoing is that which wavers in your soul, and which you dislike people finding about."
"Righteousness is in good character. It is not in the number of prayers you perform, nor in the length of your beard. It is in your behavior."

Rumi quote...
Apr. 29th, 2016 09:42 amNature teaches every soul to worship God in some way or other, and often provides that which is suitable for each. Those who want one law to govern all have lost sight of the spirit of their own religion. And it is in people who have not yet learned their own religion that such ideas are commonly found. Did they but know their own religion, how tolerant they would become, and how free from any grudge against the religion of others!
So it is too with the manner of worship. It does not matter in what way a person offers his respect and his reverence to the deity he worships. It only matters how sincere he is in his offering.
It makes no difference whether one person prays standing, another sitting, another kneeling, another prostrating himself, another in company with other people and another alone. All that matters is that the heart of the worshipper is pure, that the mind is connected with God, that there is sincerity and earnestness.

Apr. 10th, 2016 07:55 pmIt is the freeing of a slave;
Or the giving of food in a day of hunger
of an orphan near of kin,
Or a needy person in misery,
Then he has become one of those who have believed, and exhort one another to patience, and exhort one another to kindness.
(Quran 90:12-17)
kindness to everyone...

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said, "Religion is very easy and whoever overburdens himself in his religion will not be able to continue in that way. So you should not be extremists, but try to be near to perfection and receive the good tidings that you will be rewarded; and gain strength by worshipping in the mornings, the nights."
- Sahih Al Bukhari - Volumn I, Hadith 8
