Quote

When talking about marriage, Allah says your spouses are garments for you. A garment may or may not fit perfectly-but either way, it covers imperfections, protects, and beautifies.

Let your former selves teach you, but never limit or define you
Yasmin Mogahed

God tells me to cover myself, to hide my beauty and to tell the world that I’m not here to please men with my body I’m here to please God. God elevates the dignity of a woman’s body by commanding that it be respected and covered, shown only to the deserving - only to the man I marry.

T]here is no other purpose of my existence except to know, love and get closer to God. This is the one and only reason why I was created. And this is the most essential realization, as it defines everything else I do or believe. It defines all things around me, and everything I experience in life.

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!

When we can’t marry the person we had in mind, our inability to look beyond may even blind sight us from someone who is in fact better for us. When we don’t get hired, or we lose something dear to us, it’s hard to take a step back and notice the bigger picture. Often Allah takes things away from us, only to replace them with something greater.

Beware of what you let enter your heart. There will come a day when you'd give anything to remove it.
Yasmin Mogahed
Image
The poison leaves bit by bit, not all at once. Be patient. You are healing.
Yasmin Mogahed
Image
Do not say that every day you spend on this earth is a day closer to dying. Every day you spend on this earth is a day closer to finally living.
Yasmin Mogahed
Image
Like Musa you too will be saved from the Sea. Just look through it and see Him. Then the illusion will crumble and you'll be left with the only Reality: Him.
Yasmin Mogahed

Beauty attracts beauty. If you want to know what you are, look at what you are drawn to.
Yasmin Mogahed
Image
Sometimes we make duaa for a door of dunya. When it doesn't open, we cry. Not realizing that Allah has instead opened a door of jennah for us.

If you study your own struggles, the struggles of others, even in movies or novels you'll see the root of all their suffering is always attachments

You put your head on the ground, and in that moment everything was okay.
Yasmin Mogahed
Image
We die as we lived. Whatever was most important in life, will consume us at death. Whatever attachments we had will become evident then.

Loss is the returning of what never actually belonged to us in the first place.

Like the sun that sets at the end of the day, so too will Ramadan come and go, leaving only it's mark on our heart's sky.

Sometimes people have nothing to say because they're too empty. And sometimes people have nothing to say because they're too full.
Yasmin Mogahed
Image
Everything you say or allow into your eyes or ears becomes data that is stored in your heart. That data is later replayed during your prayer. If you want to know what is filling your heart, look at what you think about in your prayer. If you want to guard your heart, guard your eyes, ears, and tongue.
