These are some poems I read recently that I wanted to share, Happy Friday :)

I died from minerality and became vegetable;
And from vegetativeness I died and became animal.
I died from animality and became human.
Then why fear disappearance through death?
Next time I shall die
Bring forth wings and feathers like angels;
After than, soaring higher than angels-
What you cannont image
I shall be that.
~Rumi

To completely trust in God is to be like a child who knows deeply that even if he does not call for the mother, the mother is totally aware of his condition and is looking after him.
~al-Ghazzali

Happy are those whose own faults preoccupy them too much to think of the faults of others.
~Hadith

You will not be a mystic until you are like the earth-both the righteous and sinner tread upon it-and until you are like the clouds-they shade all things-and until you are like the rain-it waters all things, whether it loves them or not.
~Bayazid Bistami

Avoid greed, for greed in itself is poverty.
~Hadith

Whenever God loves a devotee, He subjects him to ordeals. Should he endure patiently, God singles him out; should he be content, God purifies him.
~Hadith
