‼️We blame the world for its faults, yet the true flaws lie within ourselves. The world itself is not to blame; rather, we are filled with imperfections. We mock the world without cause, but if others were to speak of us, we would be equally worthy of mockery.
♨️A wolf does not devour the flesh of its own kind, yet we knowingly consume each other's flesh. We disguise ourselves in sheep's clothing to mislead people, but woe to any wild creature that crosses our path!
🔥We have reduced religion to empty rituals and appearances, thereby deceiving those who judge us by what they see."
[Imam ash-Shaf’i (Rahimahu'Allah) | Diwan ash-Shafiýi p.376]
