Busiri Quotes

Your Nafs is just like a suckling child. If you do not take the pains to wean him, he will yearn for his mother's breast even when he's grown up. Therefore you should not try to satisfy your lust by indulging in sins. This will only increase the desire for more sins. The same is the case with the disease of gluttony. The more a person eats, the more his hunger increases.

O you who reproach me, regarding my love, excuse me. From me to you if you do justice, you would not reproach me. My state of love has been expressed to you, now my secret is no longer concealed.
