Hasan al-Basri's Words of Wisdom Full of Wisdom
1. "A person will not get the title of piety until he does muhasabah to himself more strictly than a friend who contemplates his friend." 2. “A believer does obedience but he is worried. As for the poor people commit disobedience and he feels safe." 3. “Whoever reproaches himself in front of many people, indeed he has praised himself. And that is one of the signs of riya'.”
