Pious men always remain happy !


Author : Sheikh Saadi (R.H)
I saw a holy man on the seashore who had been wounded by a tiger. No medicine could relieve his pain; he suffered much but he nevertheless constantly thanked God the most high, saying: "Praise be to Allah that I have fallen into calamity and not into sin."

If that beloved Friend decrees me to be slain
I shall not say that moment that I grieve for life
Or say: What fault has thy slave committed?
My grief will be for having offended thee.
