Shaikh Saadi

Buzurgi ba aql ast, na ba saal ,

Tawangiri ba dil ast , na ba maal .

Wisdom comes from knowledge, not from years

Riches come from the heart and not from things

Beads on a string..

Imam ibn al-Jawzi رحمه الله was once asked:

"Is it better for me to make Tasbeeh (praise Allah) or to make Istighfaar (seek forgiveness)?"

He replied:

"The dirty robe is more in need of soap than perfume"

Rog aese bhi...

Rog Aise Bhi Gham-E-Yaar Se Lag jate Hain
Dar Se Uthte Hain To Deewar Se Lag Jate Hain
Ishq Aagaz Mein Halki Si Khalish rekhta Hai
Baad Mein Senkron Aazar lag Jate Hain
Pehle Pehle Hawas Aik aadh Dukan Khilti Hai
Phir To Bazar K Bazar Lag jate Hain
Bay Basi Bhi Kabhi Furqat ka Sabab Benti hai
Ro Na Payn To Gale Yaar Se Lag Jate Hain
Daagh Daman K Hon Dil K Hon K Chehre K Faraz
Kuch Nishan Umer KI raftar Se Lag jate Hain

The unwritten things

Unwritten love
Whispers,
You still find them sweet
I continue to read
The unwritten things
You wanted me to know ... by Priyanka Dey
