True servants for allah are those ,whose each act is directed towards seeking allah’s pleasure.

When main is totally dedicated to the ideal ,he himself becomes the transformed ideal.

Most superior are those who remind you of god as soon as you look at them.

Zikr e awliya is zikr e elahi

God allows access to himself to whom he pleases,and guides to himself  who turns to him (42/13).

When man achieves the object and ideal of god’s pleasure,he himself becomes the object of divine love.

When I want to talk to allah I say prayers and when I want that he talk to me I recite quran- Hazrath Ali(ra)
