God is with the broken-hearted. When your heart breaks, it’s a good thing – the breaking of the heart is what opens it up to the light of Allah. The dunya is designed to break your heart, to crush it.
Hamza Yusuf

Hamza Yusuf
America has an immense amount of power, but it doesn't use it in any benevolent way. It uses it to maintain a status quo.
Hamza Yusuf
Everyone’s a believer when things are going fine. The real faith is when one becomes patient with tribulations.
Hamza Yusuf
There are 20,000 Muslim physicians in the United States, Americans putting their lives in the hands of Muslims every day.
Hamza Yusuf
Religion is here to unite us. It's not here to divide us. If it's dividing us, it's not God's religion, it's something else.
Hamza Yusuf
People have to be exposed to Muslims, just experience Muslims talk to them. Reach out, read about Islam, try to find out about it.
Hamza Yusuf
Intelligent people surround themselves with people who challenge them, not yes people.
Hamza Yusuf
If you had one word to describe the root of all this rage, it's humiliation.
Hamza Yusuf
The vast majority of Muslims would never accept the lawfulness of an active homosexual lifestyle. I don't see that happening. But there is also no authority in the tradition for any individual to take things into his own hands and impose their version of the religion on someone else.
