You ask if we shall know our friends in heaven. Do you suppose we are greater fools there than here?
Friendship is the golden thread that ties the heart of all the world.
NABI PAK (SALLALLAH-O-ALAIH-E-WASALLAM) NE FARMAYA:
"lOGON PR EK ZAMANA AYE GA KE UN KA,
MAKSAD UN KA PAIT HO GA,
DOLAT UNKI EZZAT HO GI,
AURAT UN KA KIBLA HO GI,
RUPEYA UN KA DEEN HO GA,
AUR WO BAD-TAREEN LOG HON GAY,
AUR AKHRAT MAIN UN KA KOI HISA NAHI HO GA"
The reality of the other person lies not in what he reveals to you but in what he cannot reveal to you. Therefore, if you would understand him, listen not to what he says but rather to what he does not say.
