flower

Imam Ali (AS) said, Take from every knowledge the best of it, for indeed the bee partakes from the most beautiful of every flower, so two precious substances are produced from it: in one of them is a cure for the people, and the other is a means of illumination. (Ghurar al-Hikam – h. # 6943)

the tree

“Abu Abdullah (as): “regarding the tree which the man uproots from his house, inside the Al-Harram’. He said; ‘If the house was built and the tree was in it, then it is not for him that he uproots it; but if it was such that it grew in his house and it is for him, then he can uproot it’.” Al Kafi, Vol. 4, h. 30

goal

To each is a goal to which Allah turns each; then strive together. Towards all that is good. Wheresoever you are, Allah will bring you together. For Allah has power over all things. (Qur’an 2:148)

Ramadan

It is mentioned in the narrations that the holy month of Ramadan is the spring of hearts, the spring of the Holy Qur’an. This does not refer to that heart which is in our chest, or the heart behind the ribs of our chest, but instead that heart which is of our soul, that which is the true and sensational heart of the human being. This heart of the soul passes through different seasons as well – spring, summer, autumn, and winter.
