His part is mercy, ours is endless praise
Persian poet, theoretician of Sufism, and hagiographer from Nishapur who had an immense and lasting influence on Persian poetry and Sufism.
To conquer oneself is a greater task than conquering others
You only lose what you cling to
Silence is the garden of thought
To live without commotion provides consolation for an unsuccessful life.
I would rather be a man of paradoxes than a man of prejudices
Four things were useless wealth without Expenditure in the way of Allah; Knowledge without practice; Piety for the sake of show prompted by worldliness Long life with no stock of good deeds
