It is in that which you love the most that you find the greatest tests.
Yasmin Mogahed
Image
Most of all, we must never be deceived. We must never allow ourselves to think that anything in this world succeeds, fails, is given, taken, done, or undone without Allah. It is only by our connection to our Creator that we rise or fall in life, in our relationship with our world—and with all of humanity.
Yasmin Mogahed
Image
Try not to confuse attachment with love. Attachment is about fear and dependency, and has more to do with love of self than love of another. Love without attachment is the purest love because it isn't about what others can give you because your empty. It is about what you can give others because you're already full.
Yasmin Mogahed
Image
Everything is as it should be. God's design is perfect.
Yasmin Mogahed

Image
Don’t you think there’s a problem when we live in a society that considers a woman’s greatest accomplishment being pretty for a man?
Yasmin Mogahed
Image
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.
Yasmin Mogahed
Image
Stop trying to make this life into what it cannot and never was intended to be: jennah. Only then will it stop breaking your heart.
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.
Yasmin Mogahed
Image
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
Image
Ya Allah, envelop our hearts with a shield of your light and mercy, so the pain doesn't penetrate.
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?
Yasmin Mogahed
Image
When someone shows you their heart, their past, their wounds, they have entrusted you with the deepest part of themselves. It is the part of themselves that makes them uniquely beautiful. To be trusted in this way is a great honor. Guard that trust with your life.
Yasmin Mogahed
Image
Allah is al-Kareem, so if He withholds from you it is not on account of stinginess. It is on account of His generosity. He withholds to give.
Yasmin Mogahed
Image
In any nation, the hypocrites do not become apparent except during times of fitnah (severe tests and hardships).
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.
Yasmin Mogahed
Image
The body that we tend to is only temporary, while the soul that we neglect is # eternal .
Yasmin Mogahed
Image
I know you feel worn and tired. I know you're tired of failing. Rest, but don't stop. You can do this. You got this. Not because you're strong, but because He's your strength.
