LESSON OF THE DAY 397

Ayah of the Day:
God is the one who raised the heavens without pillars you can see, then mounted the throne and subjected the sun and the moon: each runs for a determined period. God arranges the order and elucidates the signs, so you may be certain of meeting your Lord [13: 2]

Hadith of the Day:
A believer is not fault-finder and is not abusive, obscene, or course. [Bukhari]

Wise Quote of the Day:

One who knows that his speech is part of his action will speak little except of that which concerns him. [Ali radi Allah anhu]

Guidance of the Day:
Those with strong will power and good, sound character will not lose anything of their virtuous essence, even if they are made to suffer thousands of kinds of pains and sorrows and forced to change their views and ways. What shall we say about those weak ones who, without provocation, change their thoughts and ways every day?

Ignorance is like a veil drawn over the face of things. The unfortunate ones who cannot remove this veil, will never be able to penetrate into the truths of creation. The greatest ignorance is unawareness of God and if it is combined with arrogance, it becomes a kind of insanity impossible to cure.

A sensible person is not one who claims infallibility and therefore is indifferent to others' ideas. Rather, a truly sensible person is one who corrects his or her errors and makes use of others' ideas in acknowledgment of the fact that human beings are prone to error. [Pearls of Wisdom]

Food for Thought:

True service to others is doing something for someone, who will never find out, who did it.
