“They measure themselves by different standards: they spend in ease, and they spend in hardship, وَالْكَاظِمِينَ الْغَيْظ, and they swallow their anger even when their anger is justified. They don’t just avoid doing the things that are haram in anger, but they also make sure that they swallow their anger so that it is used only for good. They don’t use their anger for things that are petty. They don’t use their anger for things that are displeasing to Allah. They control their anger even when it may be justified because they want Allah to withhold His anger from them. وَالْعَافِينَ عَنِ النَّاسِ, And they pardon people even when they are in the right.”
― Suleiman Omar, Allah Loves

“We can’t be patient with how things are going in life until we understand that there is someone who has control of our life.”
― Suleiman Omar, Allah Loves

“May Allah (glorified and exalted is He) grant us the best of this life and the best of the Hereafter and protect us from the punishment of Hell. May He grant us the highest station of seekers, and the highest station of the patient, and the highest station of the grateful without putting us through trials that could potentially compromise that patience and allow us to lose out on that reward. Āmīn.”
― Omar Suleiman, Prayers of the Pious

“we sin out of a feeling of emptiness and we sin when there is a void that’s not properly being filled.”
― Omar Suleiman, Prayers of the Pious
