Believer vs Hypocrite in words of Holy Prophet Peace be upon him

Prophet Muhammad (SAW) said, "The example of a believer is that of a fresh tender plant, which the wind bends it sometimes and some other time it makes it straight. And the example of a hypocrite is that of a pine tree which keeps straight till once it is uprooted suddenly." - Narrated by Kab (RA), Sahih Bukhari, Volume 7, Book 70, No 547,

Riffat e Shan e Ahmadi ( Hazrat Muhammad Peace be Upon Him) by Nawab Bahadur Yar Jang

اے کہ تیرے وجود پر خالق دو جہاں کو ناز
اے کہ تیرا وجود تھا وجہ وجود کائنات
اے کہ ترا سر نیاز حد کمال بندگی
اے کہ ترا مقام عشق قرب تمام عین ذات
اے کہ تری زبان سے ربّ قدیر گلفشاں
وحی خداے لم یزل تھی تری ایک ایک بات
اے کہ تو فخر آد می، واقف سر عالمیں
لوح و قلم سے بے نیاز تیرے علوم شش جہات
تیرے عمل سے کھل گئیں تیرے بیاں سے حل ہوئیں
منطقیوں کی الجھنیں، فلسفیوں کی مشکلات
خوگر بندگی جو تھے تیرے طفیل میں ہوے
مالک مصر ا کا شغر ،وارث دجلہ و فرات
مجھ سے بیاں ہو کس طرح رفعت شان احمدی
تنگ میرے تصورات پست میرے تخیلات

Sheikh Saadi and love of the Prophet Peace be upon him

Saa´di agar aashiqi - kunii o javaani
Ishq e Muhammad bas ast o Aal e Muhammad!


Saadi if you must fall in love and are young
The love of the Prophet is enough and of the House of the Prophet!

Duniya wich Jo Kam Na Aya Okhay Sokhay Wailay
Oh Befaiz Sujjan Kolon Bahtar Yar Akelay

Better days by Goo Goo Dolls

And you ask me what I want this year
And I try to make this kind and clear
Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days
Cuz I don't need boxes wrapped in strings
And desire and love and empty things
Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days

So take these words
And sing out loud
Cuz everyone is forgiven now
Cuz tonight's the night the world begins again

And it's someplace simple where we could live
And something only you can give
And thats faith and trust and peace while we're alive
And the one poor child that saved this world
And there's 10 million more who probably could
If we all just stopped and said a prayer for them

So take these words
And sing out loud
Cuz everyone is forgiven now
Cuz tonight's the night the world begins again

I wish everyone was loved tonight
And somehow stop this endless fight
Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days

So take these words
And sing out loud
Cuz everyone is forgiven now
Cuz tonight's the night the world begins again
Cuz tonight's the night the world begins again

An Arabic Proverb

If some thing has happened once it will never happen again
but if some thing has happened twice it will happen the third time

From the Novel Alchemist

Action without knowledge

""He who acts without knowledge causes more corruption than good, and he who does not consider his speech to be part of his actions sins repeatedly. Satisfaction is scarce, and the true believer should rely on sabr (patience)."

- Hazrat Umar bin Abdul Aziz R.A.

Perseverance and Einstein

"It's not that I'm so smart; it's just that I stay with problems longer."

A good quote

"A man cannot ride your back unless it is bent"

Law of the Jungle

LAW OF THE JUNGLE

Two guys were hiking through the jungle when they spotted a tiger that looked both hungry and fast. One of the guys reached into his pack and pulled out a pair of Nike. His friend looked at him "Do you really think those shoes are going to make you run faster than that tiger? "I don't have to run faster than that tiger", his friend replied. "I just have to run faster than you".
