Abu Bakr ibn Ubaid said, 'Ubaidullah ibn Muhammad told me that he heard a devout woman say, while weeping:

"By Allah, I have grown weary of life, so much so that if I found death for sale, I would buy it out of longing for Allah and love for meeting Him."

He said, "I said to her, 'Are you certain of your deeds?' She said,

'No, by Allah, but it is because of my love for Him and my good opinion of Him. Do you think He would punish me while I love Him?'"

Sheikh Muqbil ibn Haadi al Wadee رحمه الله said,

"The intelligent woman does not like for her husband to look and have his heart tempted, by gazing at young ladies (on the TV). She does not like this.

And happiness is not achieved between the woman and her husband unless she is obedient to him and far from looking at other than him.

And likewise for him himself, he should be far from looking at women other than her. This is the fitnah of the gaze."

حلّ في الأسماع وأُثبت في القلوب

Imām Nawawi رحمه الله said: "When the predecessors would speak, intending with it the pleasure of Allah, it would enter into the ears and settle in the hearts."

Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Among the signs of a hypocrite are three, even if he fasts and prays and claims to be a Muslim: when he speaks he lies, when he gives a promise he breaks it, and when he is trusted he betrays.”

?: Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 33

Sheikh Ibn Baaz رحمه الله said,

"O Muslims, seize the opportunity to gain every benefit from this great month by performing good deeds and all forms of worship. Hasten to obey Allah as it is a great month in which Allah gives His Servants a chance to compete in doing good deeds in obedience to Him. May Allah forgive you and have mercy on you. Offer as much Salah as you can, give Sadagah, recite the Quran, and do good to the poor, needy, and orphans."
