A person's true wealth is the good deeds that he does in this world.
The Prophet Mohammed (may God bless him and grant him peace)
How one man single-handedly, could weld warring tribes and wandering Bedouins into a most powerful and civilized nation in less than two decades."
"The lies (Western slander) which well-meaning zeal has heaped round this man (Muhammad) are disgraceful to ourselves only."
"A silent great soul, one of that who cannot but be earnest. He was to kindle the world, the world’s Maker had ordered so."
Thomas Carlyle, Heroes and Heroworship
"If greatness of purpose, smallness of means, and astounding results are the three criteria of human genius, who could dare to compare any great man in modern history with Muhammad? The most famous men created arms, laws and empires only. They founded, if anything at all, no more than material powers which often crumbled away before their eyes. This man moved not only armies, legislations, empires, peoples and dynasties, but millions of men in one-third of the then inhabited world… an idea with words."
"Philosopher, orator, apostle, legislator, warrior, conqueror of ideas, the founder of twenty terrestrial empires and of one spiritual empire, that is Muhammad. As regards all standards by which human greatness may be measured, we may well ask, is there any man greater than he?"
Lamartine, Histoire de la Turquie, Paris 1854, Vol II, pp. 276-77
“Muhammad was the soul of kindness, and his influence was felt and never forgotten by those around him”
Diwan Chand Sharma, THE PROPHETS OF THE EAST, Calcutta, 1935, pp. 12
The league of nations founded by the prophet of Islam put the principle of international unity and human brotherhood on such universal foundations as to show candle to other nations.“
He continues: "The fact is that no nation of the world can show a parallel to what Islam has done towards the realization of the idea of the League of Nations.
Today after a lapse of fourteen centuries, the life and teachings of MUHAMMAD (pbuh)have survived without the slightest loss, alteration or interpolation. They offer the same undying hope for treating mankind's many ills, which they did when he was alive.
Prof. C. Snouck Hurgronje, Dutch Scholar of Oriental Cultures and Languages
Knowledge raises the low, but ignorance brings down the mighty.
Ali (ra)
Do not grow weary of your prayers, because nobody has ever been destroyed through prayer.
The Prophet Mohammed (may God bless him and grant him peace)
Prayer and worship mean closeness to Allah. Life and death are both agreeable to someone who is close to Allah.
Mawlana Jalaluddin Rumi
Be patient. Patience is the most important of all things.
Abu Bakr (ra)
Learn from the past and labor for good.
Uthman (ra)
So long as you are close to that which is not Allah, you will always be troubled and sorrowful, ascribing partners to Him, and unable to escape the burden of your sins.
'Abd al-Qadir al-Jilani?
One who regards oneself as being above one's deeds is not humble. A humble person regards himself as lower than his deeds.
Ibn `Ata' Allah al-Iskandari
If you love one another for Allah's sake, Allah will love you
Ismail Hakki Toprak
Attaching no value to the world means attaching no undue value to others. Attaching no value to others starts with attaching no undue importance to oneself.

Reflection is the key that opens the door to mercy. Do you not see? One first reflects and then repents!
Sufyan ibn Uyayna
The most auspicious knowledge is that which awakens respect for and fear of Allah.
Ibn `Ata' Allah al-Iskandari

There are three indications of a person's greatness: not complaining in the face of calamity, not groaning in the face of pain, and not praising oneself.
Abu Darda
Learn what you will, but know that so long as you do not implement what you learn, Allah will give you no reward for it.
Muadh ibn Jabal
Those closest to Muhammad (saas) are those who follow him. His enemies are those who oppose Allah.
Ali (ra)
Believers are those who are aware that God is watching them. Such servants restrain their desires and prepare themselves for the Hereafter. The hijr, an obligation that lasts until Doomsday, is the road that leads from ignorance to knowledge, from forgetting Allah to seeking Him, from sin to obedience, and from obduracy to repentance.
Sahl ibn Abdi'llah at-Tustari
Those who belittle and mock His servants do not know Allah. Those who love the Creator also love those formed by His artistry.
Aisha (ra)
Those who show patience when they cannot obtain something, contentment when they achieve it, and fortitude when they lose it are those who have heedfulness
Imam Ghazzali
Those who love prefer to please those whom they love instead of pleasing others.
Imam Ghazzali
Believers are like pearls. Wherever they may be, they are beautiful there
Maliq ibn Dinar
Those servants who trust only Allah are strong true servants.
Said an-Nabaci
Liberating the heart can be attained through four virtues: humility before Allah alone, needing Allah alone, fearing and respecting Allah alone, and hoping from Allah alone.
Said al-Hiri
One sign that the heart has died is not regretting advantages one has missed while feeling nothing for one's evil deeds.
Ibn `Ata' Allah al-Iskandari
Those who constantly speak of their own good deeds are silenced by one error, but no error can silence those who speak of Allah's blessings.
