"As I look back on my life, I realize that every time I thought I was being rejected from something good I was actually being re-directed to something better. The path to the Truth is a labour of the heart, not of the.
#SHAMS TABRIZI QUOTE RULE 1 HOW WE SEE GOD FULL#
If we see God as full of love and compassion, so are we. If God brings to mind mostly fear and blame, it means there is too much fear and blame welled inside us. How we see God is a direct reflection of how we see ourselves. 'The ability to love can only come from good character.' 40 Rules of Love - Shams-i-Tabrz Jat 2:30am 1. Imam al-Ghazzali in "Letter to a Disciple" - "Iyyuhal Walad". The first of them is, "O My Servant, for years you purified yourself in view of men and not for one hour did you purify yourself in view of Me."Īnd every day He looks into your heart He says, "What is this you are doing for other than Myself, when it is My goodness with which you are surrounded? But as for you, you are deaf and heedless!" O Disciple, what results have you had from studying the sciences of scholastic theology, rhetoric, medicine, collections of poems, astronomy, metrics, grammar and inflections, other than wasting your life in opposition to the Lord of Majesty? I have seen in the Gospel of Jesus, "From the moment the dead man is put on the bier till he is put at the graveside, God in His Majesty will ask him forty questions. O Disciple! Live as long as you want, but you must die love whatever you want, but you will become separated from it and do what you want, but you will be repaid for it!"
