“He said, ‘After I shall have passed away, the Angel of Death will come to one of my descendants and set about taking his soul, and will deal hardly with him. Then will I raise my hands from the tomb and shed the grace of God upon his lips.’” “He said, ‘If I bade the empyrean move, it would obey, and if I told the sun to stop, it would cease from rolling on its course.’” “He said, ‘I am not a devotee nor an ascetic nor a theologian nor a Sūfī. O God, Thou art One, and through Thy Oneness I am One.’” “He said, ‘The skull of my head is the empyrean, and my feet are under the earth, and my two hands are East and West.’” “He said, ‘If any one does not believe that I shall stand up at the Resurrection and that he shall not enter Paradise until I lead him forward, let him not come here to salute me.’” “He said, ‘Since God brought me forth from myself, Paradise is in quest of me and Hell is in fear of me; and if Paradise and Hell were to pass by this place where I am, both would become annihilated in me, together with all the people whom they contain.’” “He said, ‘I was lying on my back, asleep. From a corner of the Throne of God something trickled into my mouth, and I felt a sweetness in my inward being.’” “He said, ‘If a few drops of that which is under the skin of a saint should come forth between his lips, all the creatures of heaven and earth would fall into panic.’” “He said, ‘Through prayer the saints are able to stop the fish from swimming in the sea and to make the earth tremble, so that people think it is an earthquake.’” “He said, ‘If the love of God in the hearts of His friends were made manifest, it would fill the world with flood and fire.’” “He said, ‘He that lives with God hath seen all things visible, and heard all things audible, and done all that is to be done, and known all that is to be known.’” “He said, ‘All things are contained in me, but there is no room for myself in me.’” “He said, ‘Miracles are only the first of the thousand stages of the Way to God.’” “He said, ‘Do not seek until thou art sought, for when thou findest that which thou seekest, it will resemble thee.’” “He said, ‘Thou must daily die a thousand deaths and come to life again, that thou mayst win the life immortal.’” “He said, ‘When thou givest to God thy nothingness, He gives to thee His All.’”
