A beautiful saying to brighten your day...

One of our Muslim anscestors said:
"How sweet Eman is when it's beautified with Knowledge.
And how sweet Knowledge is when it's beautified with Implementation.
And how sweet Implementation is when it's beautified with Kindness.

The greatest pair of things is Implementation coupled with Kindness."
