Wisdom and Beauty of Islam

Sayings of the Prophet Muhammad

“O People turn to God in repentance and seek forgiveness of God. Indeed I repent a 100 times a day.”

• “Those who go out in search of knowledge are on the path of God until they return.”

• “The best people are those who are most useful to others.”

• “Avoid 3 Qualities: Jealousy, Greed and Regret”

• “Worship God as if you see him and remember that even if you do not see God, God still sees you.”

• “Those who do not express their gratitude to people will never be able to be grateful to God.”

• “There are as many ways to God as there are souls.”

• “Actions are based on Intentions.”

• “Seeking knowledge is better than worship.”

• “The learned are like the stars in the sky that shine and guide travelers on sea and on earth. When the stars disappear, even those who have found their way may lose their direction.”

• “The cure for ignorance is to ask and learn.”

• “Goodness will neither grow old nor fade away; Wickedness will not be forgotten, and the God of a just person will ever die. Do whatever you wish, but remember that you will receive whatever you cultivate.”

• “One hour of contemplation is worth

60 years of worship.”

• “God likes generosity and forgiveness, and dislikes an ill temper and jealousy.”

• “The most ignorant among you is the one who does not learn from the changes in the world. The richest among you is the one who is not entrapped by greed.”

• “True servants of God, the most gracious, are they who walk gently on the earth, and who, whenever the ignorant address them, reply with words of peace.”

• “God will not have mercy upon a person who has no mercy upon others.”

• ‘Jihad is not taking a sword and fighting on the way of God. Jihad is taking care of your parents and children and being free from needing others.”
