5 Life Lessons from Humanitarian Abdul Sattar Edhi

Less Talk, More Action

“Empty words and long praises do not impress God. Show Him your faith by your deeds.” –Abdul Sattar Edhi

This quote is similar to the hadith of Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), who described the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) as a “walking Quran.” Abdul Sattar Edhi lived up to his principles and was a man of action, not words. He called people to good and to humanity. But didn’t just call to people — he put in work and lived up to his own principles and values, living simple and without extravagance.
