Sufi Quotes

By iterating Ranjha, Ranjha, I have become Ranjha myself. Call me now as Dhido Ranjha, not by the name of Heer. Ranjha dwells in my inmost being and I in Him and no one else reside there. I am not, He only exists and He consoles Himself. Whatsoever seen in me, my faith and caste are the same. With whom I am knitted in love, transmuted me into His Love. Now you put aside your white mantle, put on beggar’s blanket. White mantle is stained easily, but blackened seldom accepts stain.

By iterating Ranjha, Ranjha, I have become Ranjha myself. Call me now as Dhido Ranjha, not

Sufi Quotes

Love demands something dynamic; it needs the dynamism of the sacrifice of self. It is waves of love that turn the circling heavens. But for love, the world would be frozen dead.

It is incumbent on a man to dive deep into the sea of love; if the wave of love lands him on the shore of favour, he had attained the highest achievement.

Sufi Quotes

Love of God is the only means of Sufi’s return to his eternal destination of Al-Haqe. Love discloses the secrets of Reality and it is though love that the mystic’s soul seeks perfect identity with God. Besides, love is a great unifying force in religion. The lovers of God seek unity and harmony among different beliefs and creeds.

Sufi Quotes

Love is the water of Life and will deliver you from death. Love is the bottomless sea of life-everlasting life is the least of its gifis. Love is God’s Burag, put it to the gallop. Love's light transmutes the copper of your existence into gold. Love is that flame which, when it blazes up, burns away everything except the Beloved.

In the slaughterhouse of love

In the slaughterhouse of love, they kill only the best, none of the weak or deformed. Don't run away from this dying. Whoever's not killed for love is dead meat.

Sufi Quotes

O Brothers! Mystical knowledge (Marifat) is the seed of love. Everyone who would penetrate further into the world of mystical knowledge will become more inflamed by the fire of love and will receive great delight and preeminence from the face of the Beloved and from the sight of the Desired One.

Sufi Quotes

Shah Kamal wrote to Shaikh Abdul Ahad Kabali. O Dear! Dive into the sea of violent love. If tide of the sea throws you on the sea-shore, it is good and it is a great success. And if driven into the abyss of the sea, no one would criticise you nor shall we. If time is wasted while sitting at the sea-shore, you shall deserve dead fish. And if like driver dive into the depth of the sea, you shall be deserving radiant pearl.

Neither yearning hath any end nor the pang of love. Love hath no limit, it knows its own end.

Sufi Quotes

The purpose of evolution is union with God, the one grand principle that guides the evolutionary process is love. Love created this creation. If God had no love for the creation, He would not have created it. It is love now that is acting as the impelling force in the soul and calling it back.

Sufi Quotes

God loves all His creatures, particularly man, who alone in the creation reflects all His attributes. Coming from God, his soul longs to return to Him. The very origin of its love is in His love. He loves them, and they love Him. His love precedes man’s love for Him. If man searches for God, it is because God searches man.

Sufi Quotes

Sufi in a state of ecstasy cannot be held responsible for violating sacred law, hence not to be punished. The fire of love is ever burning in the soul of God‘s lover. The religion of love is different from all religions. For lovers, the sole religion and creed is God.
