Sufi Quotes

As regards the relation between human soul and the Divine Soul. Ibn Arabi maintains that, on account of lack of Divine knowledge, we believe that our individual soul is a part of the Divine soul. When we gain Divine knowledge, the truth will be revealed in our heart and we will realise that our soul is nothing but the Divine soul in its original form.

Sufi Quotes

The chief part of the recollection (dhikr) of God is keeping close to Him. He who is preoccupied with God, is separated from the creatures and those who are detached from the creatures have escaped to the regions of solitude and are alone with the sweetness of the recollection of God, and in proportion as the heart enters into communion with God, through recollection, it escapes from loneliness.
