After the Shaikh (may Allaah preserve him) was asked about travelling to Syria to join the fighting, he said that the people of Syria are in need of du’aa, so a person should hasten to make du’aa for them.

Listen to full audio here:
The truthful slave does not see himself except as one who is deficient, and what necessitates this view are [the following]: He [considers what] he seeks after [i.e. sincerity, obedience to Allaah and His Messenger etc] to be great; [considers] himself insignificant and knows his defects, and [considers] himself as having sent forth little deeds for the Aakhirah.
[Madaarij As-Saalikeen 2/293. abridged]
Shaikhul Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah (rahimahullaah) said:
Sincerity in religion is the basis of Justice, just as shirk (associating partners with Allaah in His Lordship, in worship and in His Names and Attributes) is great injustice.

Shaikhul Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah (rahimahullaah) said:
”The highest level of truthfulness: It is the level of the Siddeeqeen, which is complete submission to the (command) of the Messenger (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) alongside perfect sincerity to the One who sent him as a Messenger (i.e. Allaah).”

Shaqeeq Al-Balhkee (rahimahullaah) said:
The signs of being repentant are: Weeping over what has elapsed (of sins); being fearful of falling into sin; abandoning evil (Muslim) brothers and keeping the company of the best people. [Siyar A’laam Nubulaa 9/315]

Allaah (The Most High) said:
وَنَزَّلۡنَا عَلَيۡكَ ٱلۡكِتَـٰبَ تِبۡيَـٰنً۬ا لِّكُلِّ شَىۡءٍ۬
And We have revealed to you the Book (O Muhammad), as a clarification and explanation for every single matter. [16:89]
There is no such thing which mankind is in need of in their life and livelihood except that Allaah has explained it in His Book whether it is by the text (itself), or by an indication, or by something made explicit or something which is understood from the text (but is not in the text. [1]
