Quote

Everything in this life is only a glimpse of the real thing. Love, beauty, pleasure, even pain in its true essence is only in the next.

Everything you have is on loan. Foolish is the one who gets attached to a loan.
Yasmin Mogahed
Image
Any beauty you see in me is only a reflection of Him, any ugliness, a reflection of my self.
Yasmin Mogahed
Image
Your worship is not a gift from you to God. It is a gift from God to you.
Yasmin Mogahed
Image
We are two people. The person inside and the person outside. Sidq (truthfulness) is when they are the same.
Yasmin Mogahed
Image
In dunya, the image is always better than the reality. In Jennah, the Reality is better than any image ever could be.
Yasmin Mogahed
Image
Its shocking how many people believe hardships are a punishment from God! Every hardship is good for you-if it brings you closer to Him!
Yasmin Mogahed
Image
You never have to be scared of the trials but of standing alone in the trials without shelter (Allah's help).
Yasmin Mogahed
Image
This life will never be without storms. Stop fearing the storm. Build your inner shelter.

Oh external worshiper, know that worship without heart is motions. Oh seeker of knowledge, know that knowledge without purification is a dangerous weapon of the ego. Oh activist, know that work without orientation of heart is fruitless. Oh lover, know that love without God is pain.

If you worshipped Muhammad, know that Muhammad is dead. But if you worshipped Allah, know that Allah never dies.

You can’t run in more than one direction at a time. And you will only run in the direction you are facing. So if your heart is facing anything other than Allah, it isn’t Him you’re running towards.
Yasmin Mogahed
Image
Our first and true home was Paradise: a land that is both perfect and eternal. So the yearning for that type of life is a part of our being. The problem is that we try to find that here. And so we create ageless creams and cosmetic surgery in a desperate attempt to hold on-in an attempt to mold this world into what it is not, and will never be.

Allah manages everything in the heavens and earth—the sun, the moon, the stars—with perfection, and yet we don’t trust Him to manage our lives!
Yasmin Mogahed
Image
If you think you're too far from Allah to return, and your 'past' continues to own you, just remember that Malik ibn Dinar (RA) was an alcoholic, and Omar (RA) was on his way to assassinate the Prophet (pbuh) before they became two of the greatest souls to walk the earth!

Oh my heart, there is another way to love. Do not love the gift for what the gift is. Love the gift for Who it came from.
Yasmin Mogahed
Image
You keep running after the love of the people, but you’ll never get it. And what you do get, will never be enough. The hole inside you is too big. You see, it was made by God, for God. How could anything less fill it?

So often we think that Allah only tests us with hardships, but this isn't true. Allah also tests with ease. He tests us with na`im (blessings) and with the things we love, and it is often in these tests that so many of us fail. We fail because when Allah gives us these blessings, we unwittingly turn them into false idols in the heart.

If you want the love of the people, stop running after it. The more you chase it, the more it escapes you. Love doesn't come from the people. It comes from God.
Yasmin Mogahed

Worry is a direct consequence of relying on your own efforts.

Sometimes the gifts of God aren't wrapped as we expect.
