1- The slave of Allaah cannot actualize 'You are the One that we worship'
except with two principles: one of them is following the Messenger and the
second is having sincerity (Ikhlaas) for the one worshipped.
Ibn al-Qayyim – ‘Tahdeeb al-Madrij’ 68
2- Sincerity for Allaah is that a person's intent is for Allaah and intends
everything for Him, causing fountains of wisdom to spring up from his heart
on to his tongue.
Ibn Taymeeyah – 'an-Naboowaat' 147
3- Whenever the sincerity of the slave of Allaah strengthens, his worship
becomes more complete.
Ibn Taymeeyah – 'al-Fatawa' 10/198
4- In relation to the amount of Tawheed a slave has for his Lord, and his
sincerity for the religion for Allaah is the amount he is deserving of the
generosity of Allaah upon him, from intercession and other things.
Ibn Taymeeyah – ‘As-Sarim al-Monkey’ 390
5- A person does not show his actions to the creation, except due to his
ignorance of the Greatness of the Creator.
Ibn Rajab – ‘Kalimat ul-Ikhlaas’ 31
6- Ikhlaas cannot be achieved except after having Zuhud, and there is no
Zuhud except after having Taqwa, and Taqwa is following the commands (of
Allaah and His Messenger) and keeping away from prohibitions.
Ibn Taymeeyah – 'al-Fatawa' 1/94

7- Strive today in implementing Tawheed, since there is nothing that will
deliver you to Allaah except Tawheed. Also, be eager in fulfilling its rights,
since there is nothing that can save you from the fire except Tawheed.
Ibn Rajab – ‘Kalimat ul-Ikhlaas’ 54
8- Whoever is sincere in regards to the actions of the Deen, which he does for
Allaah, then he is from the pious Awliyah of Allaah.
Ibn Taymeeyah – 'al-Fatawa' 1/8
9- If you correct your hidden deeds subsequently Allaah will correct your
outward deeds.
Ibn Taymeeyah – 'al-Fatawa' 3/277
10- Having the correct understanding of the Deen is light which Allaah throws
into the heart of the slave of Allaah, which is increased by having the Taqwa
of Allaah and having good intent.
Ibn al-Qayyim – ‘Ilaam al-Muaq'een' 1/69
