Firmness of heart is needed for achievement,
but a firm friend does not lack friends.
Be a firm friend, that you may find friends innumerable;
for without friends you will be left helpless.
Generally the wolf seizes his prey at the moment
when a year-old sheep has strayed alone from the flock.

Worship is like a work of art mastered only by the sincere,
the learned scholars who practice what they know,
who live and walk among people like everyone else,
but in their hearts they seek freedom in the serenity
of the wilderness.
Because of this yearning they continue to grow until
their spirits soar and become united with the numinous.
About such God says,
Indeed they are the finest of human beings,
cherished by us.

*Ramadan is the (month) in which was sent down the Qur'an, as a guide to
mankind, also clear (Signs) for guidance and judgment (Between right and
wrong). So every one of you who is present (at his home) during that month
should spend it in fasting, but if any one is ill, or on a journey, the
prescribed period (Should be made up) by days later. Allah intends every
facility for you; He does not want to put to difficulties. (He wants you) to
complete the prescribed period, and to glorify Him in that He has guided
you; and perchance ye shall be grateful.

-Qur'an, Al-Baqara, 2:185* **

39:8 When some  trouble touches man, he cries to his Lord, urning to Him in 
repentance: but when  He bestows a favour upon him as from Himself, (man) 
forgets what he cried and  prayed for before, and sets up partners to Allah, 
thus 
misleading others from  Allah's Path. Say, Enjoy your blasphemy for a little 
while: verily you are  (one) of the Companions of
the Fire! 39:8
