    محمد بن عبدالرحمن العريفي
    “نعم .. سنة الحياة أن يتقلب المرء بين حُلوةٍ ومُرةٍ .. أنا معك في هذا ..
    ولكن لماذا نعطي المصائب والأحزان في أحيان كثيرة أكبر من حجمها .. فنغتم أياماً .. مع إمكاننا أن نجعل غمنا ساعة .. ونحزن ساعات على ما لا يستحق الحزن .. لماذا ..؟!”

    محمد بن عبدالرحمن العريفي
    “جلس الرسول صلى الله عليه وسلم يوماً مع زوجه عائشة ..
    فما الأحاديث المناسب إثارتها بين الزوجين ..؟
    هل كلمها عن غزو الروم ؟ ونوع الأسلحة التي استخدمت في القتال ؟ كلا فليست هي أبو بكر !!
    أم حدثها عن فقر بعض المسلمين وحاجتهم ؟ كلا فليست عثمان !!
    إنما قال لها بعاطفة الزوجية : إني لأعرف إن كانت راضية عني .. وإذا كنت غضبى .. !!
    قالت : كيف ؟
    قال : إذا كنت راضية قلت : لا ورب محمد .. وإذا كنت غضبى قلت : لا ورب إبراهيم ..
    فقالت : نعم .. والله يا رسول الله لا أهجر إلا اسمك ..”
