Speak your heart. If they don't understand, the message was never meant for them anyway.

More quotes by Yasmin Mogahed
With the withering of the rose, and with each fallen petal, Allah is reminding us that everything here is passing away. He is reminding us that nothing in this world will remain, except for Allah.
Yasmin Mogahed
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.
Yasmin Mogahed
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
When you fall in love with a work of art, you’d die to meet the artist. I am a student of the galleries of Pacific sunsets, full moon rises on the ocean, the clouds from an airplane, autumn forests in Raleigh, first fallen snows. And I’m dying to meet the artist.
Yasmin Mogahed
This world isn't perfect. That means it isn't perfectly good but it isn't perfectly bad, either. The ease comes with the hardship. Shift the focus of what you see, and your experience of this life will change.
Yasmin Mogahed
Seek those who help you hear your own heart.
Yasmin Mogahed
If you want to kill something, neglect it. It happens in both good and bad. Neglect a relationship, it dies. Neglect your iman, it dies. But the same principal applies when you want to kill something like a thought or a desire. Neglect it, it dies.
Yasmin Mogahed
Don't worry about what the people say. Sometimes they'll praise you. Sometimes they'll condemn you. All these things all fade away. And in the end, Allah takes care of everything. Perfectly.
Yasmin Mogahed
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.
Yasmin Mogahed
Study the hurtful patterns of your life. Then don't repeat them.
Yasmin Mogahed
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
The worst part of getting close to someone is the part when you have to miss them.
Yasmin Mogahed
The traveler walks through many mirages before he finds water.
Yasmin Mogahed
Your worship is not a gift from you to God. It is a gift from God to you.
Yasmin Mogahed
What's given to dunya is lost forever. What's given to Allah is never lost. If you give what you love, for the sake of what He loves, you'll have what you love forever.
Yasmin Mogahed
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.
Yasmin Mogahed
I get it. Allah put me through it first so I could rise back up and help those around me. He trains you first. Then He sends the people to you and you to the people.
Yasmin Mogahed
If you seek Him, God can raise you up, and replace the darkness of the ocean, with the light of His Sun.
Yasmin Mogahed
In any nation, the hypocrites do not become apparent except during times of fitnah (severe tests and hardships).
Yasmin Mogahed
Some people may complicate it for you, but the formula is simple: Love God more than anything else. More than your ego. More than your money. More than your desires...More than your sleep at dawn. Love God more than anything else, and submission comes natural. Love God more than anything else, and all goodness will follow.
