Love and beauty. Look, these two subjects [are important]. Allah is pleased as the result of these. One should love Allah, one should love those who love Allah.

Beautifying life, making it pleasant is the duty of a Muslim. Allah charges us to turn this world into Heaven. We will beautify the gardens, we will beautify people. We will beautify children. Houses will be well-kept, cars will be well-kept.

If shoddiness, filth and dirt are widespread in a country; arts, science, aesthetics and soul dies there. May Allah forbid. That is no good. For that reason, we should look for beauty and aesthetics to the fullest and we should beautify everywhere we go.

How nice it is that we have our Lord Who has infinite wisdom. How nice it is that Allah likes beauty. Allah loves beauty. And He showed us an easy way; "Be well mannered so that I will take you to the Heaven," He says.

It is easy to persuade an intelligent person, it is easy to address his conscience. I mean such a person would not act tactless. An intelligent person would be reasonable. It is a great blessing that such a person cannot act remorseless. A wise person cannot run over his conscience, I mean he acts in line with his conscience. You hear beautiful words from him because he is conscientious. Such a person's beauty would mean something. Otherwise beauty has no meaning. That is because all there is left behind would be flesh and bones. And they have no meaning in that sense.

A well-kept, beautiful lady would always spread joy to her surroundings and would appear very pleasing to the eye. Once they are chaste; the flowers are very decorated and smell very beautiful as well.

Allah is the One Who puts make up on women, Allah is the One Who creates make up. Allah is the One Who puts kohl on their eyes. Consequently ladies should be beautiful. Then they would feel a greater confidence and happiness. They present a greater beauty to their surroundings. They would serve in the Path of Allah even better. Their power of compiling would be much better. Otherwise they would be disheartened.

We will be very beautiful in the Heaven. This is the world, it has many many deficiencies. Thanks be to Allah even this much is very good, very beautiful Masha'allah. Allah creates a sample of the Heaven in this world, just for us to taste a pinch of it. The real place for that is the Heaven.

Living in disbelief makes people very ugly.

We need to potentiate kindness and embarrass the evil ones among people. For instance when something is criticized the response should be given in ten folds of beauty.

When Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) appears as the spiritual leader of Muslims, his every word, every statement will bring radiance to the world. People will have the best of the words, the best of arts and aesthetics insha'Allah.

Man would be happy with arts. When one sees another dressed beautifully, he would feel happy; when one sees beautiful houses, he would feel happy. Be it in music, in paintings, in sculptures, people are in search of beauty; people search beauties which would cheer them up in everything. When one sees such things, he would feel happy.

Religion means freedom; religion means love, beauty, peace, arts and aesthetics. It means a world like heaven.

A person can only become beautiful with faith. Faith brings about radiance, faith brings about light. And one would turn into a magnificent being with faith.

If a person darkens his brain, the image would get dark as well. One needs to see the beautiful side of everything.

Faith and chastity beautifies a Muslim. If a person does not have chastity, there would be an indescribable repulsiveness on that person.

A young girl has to be smart, she needs to exercise. She has to have strong muscles and be athletic. Her hair must be very clean and well groomed.

The highest standard must be attained in artistry. The highest standard must be the goal in quality. Then the world becomes beautiful in the technical sense.

There is something wrong with a woman who is not attractive. This also holds true for a man. Allah creates even bugs in an attractive manner. Being attractive means that that person is healthy and normal. The contrary is being repulsive. A Muslim never remains repulsive. Consequently she is alluring. There is a blessed attraction on her.

When one thinks of a woman, you have to be astonished by her beauty and feel respect for her. You will appreciate her. She has to show herself as a glorious being.

Love is a requirement. If you attempt to attain something with egocentricity, the egocentricity you will be facing would suffocate you. If you step up cunningly, even more cunning ones would suffocate you. If you attempt to play tricks, the one you are facing would play ten times more tricks. Beauty cannot be attained with tricks, with rouses and with fraud; it can be attained with honesty, sincerity and love.

A Muslim should see the beautiful things and also the ugly ones; yet he should prefer the beautiful things and look for the wisdom behind the ugliness. There is nothing ugly in the Heaven. Ugliness is only created in this world for testing. Everything and everyone is beautiful in the Heaven; trees, plants, people, children and all food.

There are ugly ones among people but the advantage they have is that they can turn that ugliness into a beauty with good morality. I mean they can become a very radiant, very beloved people.

There is nothing that belongs to us; everything belongs to God. All beauties, making people loved, making people liked all belongs to God. Almighty God is the Eternal, Infinite Beauty. We understand this from His Manifestations. Almighty God manifests only a portion of His Beauty and we all feel out of breath.

If you submit to the Qur’an, if you love God and live love and passion, God would beautify you as well. What would happen to one if one lives in jealousy, hatred, rage and malice? The cells of the body would become cancerous. That person’s nose would get ugly, their mouth, hands, their whole body would become ugly.
