More quotes by Yasmin Mogahed
Arrogance is actually just ignorance. Ignorance of what you really are in relation to the world-but most of all in relation to God.
Yasmin Mogahed
Everything you have is on loan. Foolish is the one who gets attached to a loan.
Yasmin Mogahed
Don't ever be afraid of giving. Give. Give of your time, your forgiveness, your understanding, your love. Give of your money. Give to the creation, and you'll be given by the Creator. Be generous, and the Most Generous will be generous with you.
Yasmin Mogahed
Salah is the first thing we will be asked about on the Day of Judgment, and yet it is the last thing that is on our mind.
Yasmin Mogahed
Holding on to hope when everything is dark, is the greatest test of faith
Yasmin Mogahed
If you wonder how you'll get through this new heartbreak, just think back. Remember all you've been through in the past. And how each time you swore, you'd never get through it. But you did. And look where you're at now. This too shall pass!
Yasmin Mogahed
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
Don't expect your spouse to be perfect. He/she is only the dunya version of themselves. Their 'perfect' version is saved for jennah.
Yasmin Mogahed
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
Yasmin Mogahed
Give. Even when you know you can get nothing back.
Yasmin Mogahed
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.
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
Before anything can break your heart, it must first own your heart. Stop handing your heart to dunya-it'll stop breaking it.
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
Your worship is not a gift from you to God. It is a gift from God to you.
Yasmin Mogahed
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
If you worshipped Muhammad, know that Muhammad is dead. But if you worshipped Allah, know that Allah never dies.
Yasmin Mogahed
In dunya, the image is always better than the reality. In Jennah, the Reality is better than any image ever could be.
Yasmin Mogahed
To some,Islam is nothing but a code of rules and regulations.But,to those who understand,it is a perfect vision of life
Yasmin Mogahed
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.
