Our Most Precious Muhammad, The Seal of Prophets, pbuh said:

Whoever does not express his gratitude to people will never be grateful to God.


I have turned my face to the One Who created the Heavens and the Earth

O nce, a Bedouin was asked what made an unsophisticated man like him believe in Allah.
Bedouin: "Do you see these marks in the sand?"
Man: "Yes."
Bedouin: "What do they tell you?"
Man: "A camel went by."
Bedouin: "Did you see the camel?"
Man: "No, but these footprints in the sand suggest that a camel made them."
Bedouin: "Do you see these mountains?"
Man: "Yes."
Bedouin: "They are indicative to me that Allah made them."


A nd before God prostrate themselves,
willingly or unwillingly,
all things and beings that are in the heavens and the earth,
as do their shadows in the mornings and the evenings.

Qur'an

O servant,
where dost thou seek Me?
O servant,
where dost thou seek Me?
Lo ! I am beside thee.
I am neither in temple
nor in mosque:
I am neither in Kaaba
nor in Kailash:
Neither am I in rites and ceremonies,
nor in Yoga and renunciation.
If thou art a true seeker,
thou shalt at once see Me:
thou shalt meet Me
in a moment of time.
Kabir says, ' O Sadhu !
God is the breath of all breath.'

Kabir


Why carry a whole load of books
Upon your back
Climbing this mountain,
When tonight,
Just a few thoughts of God
Will light the holy fire.

Hafiz


T ravel not from creature to creature, otherwise you will be like a donkey at the mill: roundabout he turns, his goal the same as his departure. Rather, go from creatures to the Creator: “And that the final end is unto thy Lord.”
Consider the Prophet’s words (Allah bless him and grant him peace!):
“Therefore, he whose flight is for Allah and His Messenger, then his flight is for Allah and His Messenger; and he whose flight is for wordly gain or marriage with a woman, then his flight is for that which he flees to.” So understand his words (upon him peace!) and ponder this matter, if you can.
And peace on you!

Ibn ‘Ata’illah


T he goal of all mysticism is to cleanse the heart,
to educate, or transform, the self,
and to find God. The lowest level of the self is dominated by pride, egotism, and totally
self-centered greed and lust. This level is the
part within each person that leads away
from Truth. The highest level is the pure self,
and at this level there is no duality,
no separation from God.
Robert Frager



"You may say I'm a dreamer
but I'm not the only one
I hope one day you'll join us
and the world'll live as ONE

Imagine all the people living life
in peace...

...this is my dream"

"the sun never says to the earth,
'you owe me.'

Look what happens with a love like
that .
It lights up the whole sky."

What Can We Do?

Islamic Declaration of Peace
Selections from the Holy Qur'an

O mankind, truly We have created you male and female, and have made you nations and tribes that ye may know one another. Truly the most noble of you, in the sight of God, is the most God-conscious. 49: 13 For every community (of faith) We have appointed ways of worship, which they aught to observe. Hence, do not let those (who follow other ways) draw you into dispute on this score, but summon them to their Sustainer: for you are on the right way. And if they argue with you, say: God knows best what you are doing. 22:67
Truly those who believe, and the Jews, and the Christians, and the Sabaeans - whoever believes in God and the Last Day and performs virtuous deeds - surely their reward is with their Sustainer, and no fear shall come upon them, neither shall they grieve. 2:62
It was We who revealed the Torah; therein was guidance and light. By its standard the Jewish people have been judged by the Prophets who surrendered to God's will, as well as by the Rabbis and the doctors of Law, for to them the protection of God's book was entrusted: If any do fail to judge by what God has revealed (including the Torah), they are (no better than) unbelievers. 5:44 We ordained for the Children of Israel that if anyone slew a person unless it be for murder or for spreading mischief in the land, it would be as if he slew all of humanity: and if anyone saved a life it would be as if he saved the life of all of humanity. 5:32 We ordained therein for them: "A life for a life, an eye for an eye, a nose for a nose, an ear for an ear, a tooth for a tooth and equivalence in harm done." But if anyone by way of charity foregoes that retaliation, it is an act of atonement for himself. And if any fail to judge by what God has revealed, they are wrongdoers. 5:45
And in their footsteps We sent Jesus the son of Mary confirming the law that had come before him: We sent him the Gospel: and therein was guidance and light and confirmation of the law that had come before him: a guidance and an admonition to those who are conscious of God. 5:45-46 To Jesus the son of Mary We gave clear signs and strengthened him with the Holy Spirit. 2:253
O you who keep the faith! When you go abroad in the way of God, be clear and circumspect and say not to anyone who offers you a greeting of peace: "You are not a believer!" 4:94 To each community among you We have prescribed a Law and a way of life. If God had so willed He would have made you a single people, but His plan is to test you in what He has given you: so strive as in a race in all virtues. The goal of you all is to God; it is He that will show you the truth of the matters in which you differ. 5:48
And do not argue with the followers of earlier revelations except in the most gentle manner. 29:46 Goodness and Evil cannot be equal. Repel Evil with something better: then the one who hated you will become your friend and intimate! And no one will be granted such goodness except those who exercise patience and self-restraint, none but persons of the greatest good fortune. And when the Evil One incites discord, seek refuge in God. He is the One Who hears and knows all things. 41:34 And the servants of the Infinitely Compassionate are those who walk on the earth in humility and when the ignorant accost them, they only reply "Peace!" 25:65
Let there be no compulsion in religion. Truth stands out clearly from error; whoever rejects evil and has faith in God has grasped the most trustworthy, unfailing handhold. And God hears and knows all things. God is the Protector of those who have faith: from the depths of darkness He will lead them forth into light. 2:256-257
