My dear sisters in humanity: Your beauty-both internal and external-is priceless. Only the man who marries you has a right to see it. Never forget, if he doesn't want to marry you, he doesn't deserve you.

More quotes by 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.
Yasmin Mogahed
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
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
Resilience is very different than being numb. Resilience means you experience, you feel, you fail, you hurt. You fall. But, you keep going.
Yasmin Mogahed
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.
Yasmin Mogahed
Stop hating on yourself for not being perfect. If God wanted perfection, He would have made you an angel.
Yasmin Mogahed
When the pain overtakes you, reach inside. Gather the broken pieces, and hand them to God. Ask Him to remake your heart. Different, this time. Stronger. More beautiful. This is how we are made, and remade by the Maker.
Yasmin Mogahed
Being both soft and strong is a combination very few have mastered.
Yasmin Mogahed
People think it's the mind that drives us. It is the heart. The mind is a slave to the heart. So check the condition of the heart.
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
We cannot tolerate one mistake from others, and yet God tolerates a planet covered with His own creation that live their entire lives sinning and denying Him, and yet continues to feed, clothe and protect them.
Yasmin Mogahed
Worry is a direct consequence of relying on your own efforts.
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
Let your former selves teach you, but never limit or define you
Yasmin Mogahed
To empty the heart does not mean to not love. On the contrary, true love, as God intented it, is purest when it is not based on a false attachment. The process of first emptying the heart can be found in the beginning half of the shahada (declaration of faith).
Yasmin Mogahed
You never have to be scared of the trials but of standing alone in the trials without shelter (Allah's help).
Yasmin Mogahed
It is in that which you love the most that you find the greatest tests.
Yasmin Mogahed
Your worship is not a gift from you to God. It is a gift from God to you.
Yasmin Mogahed
Some feel lonely because they haven't found that perfect 'companion' yet. Sometimes Allah sends everyone else away so you can find that only in Him.
Yasmin Mogahed
Embrace life and all that God gives you-but never let it contain you. This world is too small to contain you.
