- “Two people, who have acted alike, enter the heaven, but one of them sees the other one in a higher place. Then, he says: O’ Lord!

- If you knew god the way you should’ve known, Mountains definitely will be moved by your prayers.
- Crying out of fear of god is the key to his mercy, it’s a sign for his acceptance and it’s a door to answering (your prayers)
- Pray to god and believe in his answeres. But understand that god wont accept prays from an unwitting oblivious heart.

O’ Lord! Through You, and only from You I ask for my needs, and everyone wants their needs from people, but I ask for my needs only from You, You are the One and You have no partner, and through Your grace and pleasure, I ask you to send down Your blessings upon Muhammad and his Household and grant me a way to Your honorable House (the Kaabah) this year, a proper, accepted, righteous, pure pilgrimage for you, which makes You to enlighten my eyes and raise my rank because of it, and bestow me to lower my glance and protect my private parts and abstain from all Your sins, until nothing is more beloved to me than obedience to You, and fear of You, and doing what You loved and leaving what You disliked and forbade, and put it along with the breadth of the day and comfort and health. And inspire me to give thanks for what You have given me. And I ask You to make my death martyrdom in Your way under the banner of Your Prophet with Your Friends. And I ask You to kill Your enemies and the enemies of Your Prophet by me and I ask You to honor me with the humiliation of whatever You want and do not humiliate me in the face of dignity of one of Your saints. O’ Lord! Ordain for me a way with Your Prophet (to be guided), God is sufficient for me, Whatever God desires will happen for me.
