Courage

Assalamu Alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh

Just a very short post on Courage.

I read a short passage from a book a very long time ago about courage. I have reproduced that passage below.

Minshaad Dinwari (rahmatullah alayh),who was an Alim from the city of Dinwar which lies between Hamdaan and Baghdad wrote:

"On one of my journeys i saw a Shaykh from whom the signs of goodness exuded. I requested him for nasheehat(advice). He said:

'Keep up your courage and guard it. Courage is the forerunner of a man's righteous deeds. All acts and states become simple for one whose courage is high.'"
