Spirituality - The Piety of Abu Dhar al Ghaffari

Pearl of Wisdom

when he saw a male sparrow saying to a female sparrow, 'Why do you deprive me of yourself, for if I wanted I could take Solomon's crown with my beak and throw it in the seal' Solomon said to him, smiling, 'Are you really able to do so?' The bird said, 'No, O Messenger of Allah, but a man may embellish himself and greaten himself in front of his wife, and a lover cannot be rebuked for what he says.' Solomon then asked the female sparrow, 'Why do you deprive him of yourself when he loves you?' She said, ?O Prophet of Allah, he is not a lover, but a claimant [of love], for he loves someone else besides me!' The words of this sparrow affected Solomon's heart and he cried very much, and secluded himself from people for forty days praying to Allah to empty his heart for his love for Him, and to not mix it with love for anything other than Him.'

Spirituality - The Piety of Abu Dhar al Ghaffari

In the Holy Qur'an

And keep up prayer in the two parts of the day and in the first hours of the night (11:114)

In the Traditions

The Prophet said, "The most noble of my community are those who carry the Qur'an in their hearts, and those who stand in prayer at night."

THe Prophet said, "Surely Allah will place light in the heart of the slave who retires with his Master in the deepest darkeness of the night, coversing with Him in prayer; and if he says, 'O Lord' then Allah will call out to him saying, 'At your service, my slave, whatever you ask of Me, i will surely give you and if you reply on Me then i will be enough for you'.
Then He will say to the Angles, "My Angels, look at My slave - he retires alone with Me in the deepest darkness of the night while the misguided are playing and the negligent are sleeping, Bear witness that i have forgiven him."
