It is difficult to reach the eye of a storm, but, once there, a person will find calm and tranquility even with chaos all around him.
After a life full of struggle and sacrifice, the great reformer Ibn Taymiyah was very tranquil and at peace especially in his last days. In the citadel where he was imprisoned, he used to say, "What can my enemies do with me? My paradise and garden is in my chest; wherever I go, it goes with me".
