Top 5 Martin Lings Quotes (2025 Update)

Martin Lings Quote: “Equipped as he is by his very nature for worship, man cannot not worship ; and if his outlook is cut off from the spiritual plane, he will find a “god” to worship at some lower level, thus endowing something relative with what belongs only to the Absolute. Hence the existence today of so many “words to conjure with” like “freedom”, “equality”, “literacy”, “science”, “civilization”, words at the utterance of which a multitude of souls fall prostrate in sub-mental adoration.”
Martin Lings Quote: “With reference to the heart’s blindness and it’s cure the Prophet said: “For everything there is a polish that taketh away rust, and the polish of the heart is remembrance of God.” And when asked who would rank highest in God’s esteem on the Day of Resurrection he answered: “The men and the women who invoke God much in remembrance.”
Martin Lings Quote: “Active and Passive Perfection are the Taoist equivalent of the sufi terms Majesty and Beauty.”
Martin Lings Quote: “To Fatimah he said: “Thou art the highest of the women of the people of Paradise, excepting only the Virgin Mary, daughter of ‘Imran.” In prediction of the great part to be played by ‘Ali as one of the chief transmitters of his wisdom to future generations, he said: “I am the city of knowledge, and ‘Ali is its gate”; and he said in general: “My Companions are even as the stars: whichsoever of them ye follow, ye shall be rightly guided.”
Martin Lings Quote: “Not one of you has faith until I am dearer to him than his son and his father and all men together.” But this utterance of the Prophet was not so much a demand as a confirmation of the rightness of a love that had already been given – a love which found its expression so often in the words: “May my father and my mother be thy ransom.”
