Cultivating a humble heart

Death is the best tool for one’s education. Death leads people to be loving, compassionate, understanding, humble and decent.

Poverty might appear to be a pitiful concept on the outside, but actually poverty makes people humble, devout and good-mannered. It makes people appreciative of blessings and makes them recognize the value of those blessings.

The best attitude that can be adopted against egocentricity and haughtiness is to be submissive towards God, to put trust in God, to be patient and humble and to avoid being egocentric. The shortest remedy to that in the Qur'an is self-criticism. One should criticize himself both while he is alone and while he is in the company of others.

All snobs will be devastated; they will all be ashamed. They assume that the world can be governed with snobbery. God is the One Who governs the World. God will make humble, inoffensive, beautiful people rule the World. All snobs will lose face. The end of all snobs is a two-meter grave.

Be humble for blessings

The bigots and the radicals of the End Times would have a great egocentricity, they would put on airs and would get wild and act like Pharaohs; some of them will. But the students of the Mahdi will be humble and loving. Towards whom? Towards Muslims.

Muslim should be very humble, he should be like the soil. Harshness cannot be an attribute of a Muslim.

A real artist would be a man of love, he would be humble, his manners would be very upright.

If you do not accept humility, if you behave haughty, if you act arrogant, Allah would send scourges upon you. May Allah forbid! If you behave inoffensive, if you behave humble, abundance would come upon you, a feeling of peace would come upon you. You will be filled with radiance inside and out. You will prosper. Otherwise Allah collapses you from all sides. You would not have abundance, peace, peace of mind, idea or any radiance. May Allah forbid! Allah would take His Light away from you.

A Muslim should be like the soil. He should be the most humble one. He will not be the head; he will always try to be the feet. The ambition to become the head is an abnormal act. It is an ambition of the lower-self. It is not something nice. The devout Muslim, the good Muslim, is the one who always wants to be the feet, the servant of the others. Muslim is the one who wants to be the soil; such are the desirable, acceptable ones.

Genuine Muslims are humble, they are tranquil, they are companionable. They never engage in artificial behaviors, they never act haughtily, never put on airs pretending to be a pompous hodja or a mullah. They do not put on airs pretending to be a saint. They do not put on airs pretending to be a crispy voiced, special guy. Their manners are always normal and kind.

Muslim is the most humble and best mannered person in the world whose heart is ebullient with love.
