About This Quote

The truth that is suppressed by friends is the readiest weapon of the enemy. The prophet, Muhammad, said, “The truth that is suppressed by friends is the readiest weapon of the enemy.” This has always struck me as one of the greatest truths in all of history. I’ve found that when people suppress the truth about what is happening around them, they are hiding from themselves. They are hiding from their own pain and the power of their life’s desperation. When people hide what they know about themselves, they are also hiding from everyone else.
