The BEST DHIKR is that in which both the Heart & Tongue are Focused~[Ibn al-Qayyim.r.a.]

 
 


Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:-

 

 

The types of Dhikr may be in the Heart and on the tongue sometimes,

which is the best of dhikr~

 

 

or they may be in the heart only sometimes,

which is the second level~

 

and on the tongue sometimes, which is the third level.

 

 

The best of Dhikr is that on which Heart and Tongue are Focused!

 

 and Dhikr in the heart only is better than dhikr on the tongue only,

 

 

 because Dhikr in the Heart increases knowledge,

 

provokes love,

 

 

increases shyness before Allaah,

 

 

promotes fear of Allaah,

calls one to draw closer to Him!!!

 

 

 and it prevents one from falling short in acts of worship and being heedless about sins and bad deeds.

 

 

Dhikr on the tongue only does not give any of these results and it is of little benefit.

  "All that is on earth will Perish. But will abide {Forever} 
 the Face of thy Lord, full of Majesty, Bounty and Honour"
 {'Quran'- Surah Al-Rahman-55.26-27 }

'Wasting time is Worse than Death!

Because Death Separates you from this World

 Whereas wasting Time Separates you from Allah'.

Ibn Qayimm Al-Jawziyyah.

 

I Want to Die With my Forehead on the Ground!
The Sunnah in my Heart, Allah on my Mind,
Qur'an on my Tongue, and Tears in my Eyes!

'Insha Allah'! 

' Son of Adam! You are nothing but a number of days, whenever each day passes then part of you has Gone.

 {Al-Hasan Al-Basree}
