![“Have you not considered how Allah presents an example, [making] a good word like a good tree, whose root is firmly fixed and its branches [high] in the sky? It produces its fruit all the time, by permission of its Lord. And Allah presents examples for the people that perhaps they will be reminded. And the example of a bad word is like a bad tree, uprooted from the surface of the earth, not having any stability. Allah keeps firm those who believe, with the firm word, in worldly life and in the Hereafter. And Allah sends astray the wrongdoers. And Allah does what He wills.”
(Qur’an, 14:24-27, Sahih Int. Translation)](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lz5456mGQS1qkwmgko1_250.jpg)
![poeticislam:
Al-Hasan Al-Basri attended a funeral prayer. When they had buried the dead person he said to a man from the gathering: ”Do you think that this dead person would wish to come back to the earth to increase his deeds from dhikr, good actions and istighfaar from his sins?? The man replied, Yes. So al-Hasan said? Then why arent we like this dead person??”

"Whoever brings a good deed, he shall have ten like it, and whoever brings an evil deed, he shall be recompensed only with the like of it, and they shall not be dealt with unjustly."
– Qur’an 6:160 (via ssiddiqui90)
"Deeds without sincerity are like a traveler who carries dirt in his water-jug. The carrying of it burdens him and it brings no benefit."
– Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah (via gordo10bx)
Al-Hasan Al-Basri (may Allah have mercy upon him) said:
“Almighty Allah has not set a deadline for a believer’s having to do good deeds, except death.”
Then he recited Almighty Allah’s words: And serve thy Lord till the inevitable (death) cometh unto thee (Al-Hijr 15:99)
