If there is one recipe for unhappiness it is that: expectations.
Yasmin Mogahed
We die as we lived. Whatever was most important in life, will consume us at death. Whatever attachments we had will become evident then.
Yasmin Mogahed
If you worshipped Muhammad, know that Muhammad is dead. But if you worshipped Allah, know that Allah never dies.
Yasmin Mogahed
You refuse to forgive people, and yet on the Day of Judgment you will stand bare, begging Allah to forgive you.
Yasmin Mogahed
My laughter won't last forever but neither will my tears. We say this life isn't perfect. And it isn't. It isn't perfectly good. But, it also isn't perfectly bad, either.
Yasmin Mogahed
Know that transformation sometimes begins with a fall. So never curse the fall. The ground is where humility lives. Take it. Learn it. Breathe it in. And then come back stronger, humbler and more aware of your need for Him. Come back having seen your own nothingness and His greatness.
Yasmin Mogahed
The worst part of getting close to someone is the part when you have to miss them.
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
Let your heart go Home, even before your body arrives.
Yasmin Mogahed
Yes, the heart breaks. But, it also heals.
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
My Nafs screams out for what it desires. But my will to be free screams louder.
Yasmin Mogahed
Shaytan will tell you that you’re not worthy, so give up. But his traps are based on lies. When was any of it because of *your* worth? It was all because of His mercy, His generosity, His love of giving, and forgiving. And those qualities don’t change because you’re messing up. Just seek them. Call Him by His mercy, not by your deeds.
Yasmin Mogahed
Tear your heart out of your chest. And hand it to God. There is no other healing. I swear, there is no other healing
Yasmin Mogahed
Seek the ones who never stop caring, who break down your walls, and help you come back to yourself
Yasmin Mogahed
We are always looking for signs. We are always asking for God to 'speak' to us. But those signs are all around us. They are in everything. God is always 'speaking'. The question is whether we are listening.
Yasmin Mogahed
Compassion is to look beyond your own pain, to see the pain of others.
Yasmin Mogahed
You've been given status today, but never forget where you came from. You came from dirt and will return to dirt. You will be on that day as you began: just you and Him.
Yasmin Mogahed
As a Muslim woman, I’ve been liberated from a silent kind of bondage. I don’t answer to the slaves of God on earth. I answer to their King.
Yasmin Mogahed
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.
