Piety


بِسمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمَانِ الرَّحِيمِ
A man came to Sayyidah ‘Aaisha (رضي اللهُ عنها) and asked, “When will I know that I am pious?”  And she (رضي اللهُ عنها) said, “When you realize that you are a sinner.”  He said, “When will I know I am a sinner?”  She (رضي اللهُ عنها) replied, “When you think you are pious.”  (Tanbeehul Ghaafileen, pg. 251)
