Extraction from book I resonate with:
It is well to give when asked, but it is better to give unasked, through understanding;
And to the open-handed the search for one who shall receive is joy greater than giving.
And is there aught you would withhold?
All you have shall some day be given;
Therefore give now, that the season of giving may be yours and not your inheritors’.

“All these things shall love do unto you that you may know the secrets of your heart, and in that knowledge become a fragment of Life’s heart”
I believe that in our times of hardship, when we are at our lowest. By reflecting through oneself, we can discover “the secrets of our heart”. We learn through love, our fears, our longings, and our true values. All this falls into the hands of Allah.
