Ibn Rajab رَحِمَهُ اللهُ said:
Emptying the stomach of food and drink enlightens the heart and
softens it, removes hardness from it, and cleanses it for the remembrance of Allāh and contemplation.

Allaah’s Messenger ﷺsaid:
“If you knew the amount of Mercy of Allaah, the Mighty and
Majestic, you would rely upon it and you would not carry out any action from
the good deeds.
And if you knew the amount of His Anger then nothing (from your
deeds) will be of benefit to you.”
(Recorded by Ibn Abee Ad-Dunyah in Husnu-Zan, Silsilah al-Ahadeeth
as-Saheehah no. 2167)

A few excerpt:
----
Abu
Dawūd (no. 1426) also reported from ‘Ali bin Abi Tālib (radiyallāhu ‘anhu) that
Allah’s Messenger (salallāhu ‘alaihi wasallam) used to recite at the end of his
Witr:
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي
أَعُوذُ بِرِضَاكَ مِنْ سَخَطِكَ وَبِمُعَافَاتِكَ مِنْ عُقُوبَتِكَ وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ
مِنْكَ لاَ أُحْصِي ثَنَاءً عَلَيْكَ أَنْتَ كَمَا أَثْنَيْتَ عَلَى نَفْسِكَ
“O
Allah, I seek refuge in your good-pleasure from your anger, and in your
forgiveness from your punishment and I seek refuge in your mercy from your
wrath. I cannot reckon the praise due to you. You are as you have praised
yourself.”
NOTE: Added for the benefit of new muslims who cannot read Arabic:
Allaahumma ‘innee ‘a’oothu biridhaaka min
sakhatika, wa bimu’aafaatika min ‘uqoobatika, wa ‘a’oothu bika minka,
laa ‘uhsee thanaa’an ‘alayka, ‘Anta kamaa ‘athnayta ‘alaa nafsika.
“O Allah, I seek refuge in your good-pleasure from your anger, and in your forgiveness from your punishment and I seek refuge in your mercy from your wrath. I cannot reckon the praise due to you. You are as you have praised yourself.”
Allaah Forgives All Sins
On the authority of 'Abdullaah b. 'Abbas (radiallaahu'anhu) that the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) said:
t.me/BenefitsAndPrinciples
An Irrevocable Decree By Allāh
Ibn Al-Qayyim رحمه الله mentioned:
Allāh
has decreed a decree that cannot be rejected or repelled, that
whoever loves anything asides Him will be
inevitably punished by it, and that whoever fears other than Him will be
overpowered by it, and that whoever is preoccupied with other than Him will be
befallen by misfortune, and that whoever
prefers something over Him will not be blessed in it, and that whoever
pleases other than Him by earning His anger, He (Allāh) will inevitably make
him (the one who was pleased) angry at him.

Question. Is the following statement from
backbiting where a person says, “I don’t like so and so’s recitation (of
Quran)” or So and so isn’t able to recite Quran well.”Is this backbiting?
Answer. It’s belittlement, yes. This is
belittlement of that person. He recited putting forth his best effort and
according to his ability. He did what he was able to do, so you should not put
him down for that.

Beware of “Self-Thought” Intellectuals Claiming
Knowledge
Shaykh Sāliḥ al-Fawzān (حفظه
الله)
stated:
"It is possible for any person to
buy an amount of books and read them, but that doesn’t benefit anything, it
harms more than it benefits. Let’s give an example: If you felt an illness, do
you go to the pharmacy and pick up any random medicine from it? Or must you go
to the doctor first so he can diagnose the type of illness and prescribe the
appropriate medicine? All of that is done (visiting the doctor etc. first)
fearing that you may take a harmful medicine that is not appropriate, which may
kill you or harm you. Similarly, knowledge, you must go to the specialists in
it, and take it from them, and do not suffice with just books, for fear of falling into misguidance, and being
affected by what is in some of them from doubts…”
