It is compulsory upon us to be brothers in Allah’s religion, to have mutual love for one another.
Al-Uthaymin, The Islamic awakening, p 51
I advise you to enjoin what is good and forbid what is evil as much as you possibly can, for these two practices are from the most important of obligatory acts in Allah’s religion.
Al-Uthaymin, The Islamic awakening, p 124
The “good life” is having a cheerful, peaceful, and relaxed heart, even if one is in the most difficult of circumstances.
Al-Uthaymin, The Islamic awakening, p 24
Do not let the hatred you have for a people to lead you into being unjust, for justice is compulsory.
Al-Uthaymin, The Islamic awakening, p 68
You must learn about the situation of the one you are calling (to Islam). What is his level of knowledge? And how good is he in arguing and debating? You apprise yourself of these matters so that you can prepare for him and then discuss with him and debate with him. If you enter into a debate with one who is stronger than you in argumentation, and who then overcomes you with his arguments, however false they may be, a large spot will stain the truth, and you will have been the cause of it. Do not think that one who is upon falsehood will always be beaten.
Al-Uthaymin, The Islamic awakening, p 33
Forbid evil, uphold and establish what is good, and invite others to Allah, day and night, as much as you are able.

Inviting others to the way of Allah is a compulsory duty.
Al-Uthaymin, The Islamic awakening, p 135
Be patient and determined; if one does not change for the better today, he may do so tomorrow. In attempting to better the manners of your family, begin with easy matter and then move on gradually to the more difficult ones. By the might of Allah, I am confident that, if one is patient, determined, and consistent in his Da’wah (calling to Islam), he will in the end succeed.
Al-Uthaymin, The Islamic Awakening, p 57
One who calls to the way of Allah (S.W.T) must adorn himself with noble manners, so that the effect of knowledge can be seen in his person, his belief, in his worship, in his behavior, and all of his characteristics and dealings. If one is not upon a noble character, then his da’wah (calling to Islam) will fail and even if he does succeed, its success will be of minor report.
Al-Uthaymin, The Islamic awakening, p 5
Wisdom is to perfect matters, and this means that one endowed with wisdom puts each thing in its appropriate place and gives each matter its due importance. Hence, it is not from wisdom for you to rush matters, wanting people to change overnight from the state that they are upon to the state that the companion (of the prophet) were upon. Whoever wants that is foolish and far away from wisdom.
Al-Uthaymin, The Islamic awakening, p 39
The believer is patient and finds that the joy of patience results in tranquility and satisfaction.
Al-Uthaymin, The Islamic awakening, p 24
Inviting people to the way of Allah is the invitation (Da’wah) of goodness and truth, for it is an invitation to justice and good deeds; an invitation that is in harmony with the sound inborn nature of man and with the careful intellect to which intelligent people are naturally attracted.
Al-Uthaymin, The Islamic awakening, p 82
Knowledge is as much the foundation as it is the very substance of the message we are calling others to follow. No message can be complete, at least not in a way that pleases Allah (To Him belongs Might and Majesty), unless it is founded by knowledge.
Al- Uthaymin, The Islamic awakening, p 28
The truth has its enemies [who are waiting to take advantage of our mistake].
Al- Uthaymin, The Islamic awakening, p 34
The youth must attribute good intentions to scholars when there is disagreement among them.
Al- Uthaymin, The Islamic awakening, p 67
If you feel happy after doing an act of worship, which you did for Allah then that does not harm you. It can even be a form of glad tidings for a believer.
Al- Uthaymin, The Islamic awakening, p 121
