- Imam Ali (a.s.)
One day you will ask me which is more important? My life or yours? I will say mine and you will walk away not knowing that you are my life.
- Khalil Gibran (via thepathofabeliever)
It is better to sit in silence before the book of God than to project your own petty weakness upon it.

The first thing that Allah made obligatory upon my Ummah was the five prayers; and the first thing from their acts of worship that shall be taken up will be the five prayers; and the first thing that they will be questioned about will be the five prayers.
- Prophet Muhammad (saws), Kanzul `Ummal, Volume 7, Tradition 18859 (via yaseeneducation)

- Imam Al Kadhim (as), Bihar al Anwar v. 78, p. 323, no. 23 (via alajjal)
