More quotes by Yasmin Mogahed
You can search the world over, but you won’t find happiness until you realize that happiness isn’t getting what you want. It’s being content with what you already have.
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
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
Let your former selves teach you, but never limit or define you
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
Allah manages everything in the heavens and earth—the sun, the moon, the stars—with perfection, and yet we don’t trust Him to manage our lives!
Yasmin Mogahed
The people will come and go. Sometimes they'll be there for you. Sometimes they wont. Some will love you, some will not. This tide was never meant to be still. Step away from time to time. And know that only a heart fixed on the unmoving spot can ride the waves of this ever-changing, ever-fading life.
Yasmin Mogahed
We are two people. The person inside and the person outside. Sidq (truthfulness) is when they are the same.
Yasmin Mogahed
You put your head on the ground, and in that moment everything was okay.
Yasmin Mogahed
Just as storms change the landscape of the earth, our hardships change the landscape of the heart.
Yasmin Mogahed
The enduring life is the one that begins once we awaken from this world. And it is in that awakening that we realize... It was only a dream
Yasmin Mogahed
When you have friends, don’t expect your friends to fill your emptiness. When you get married, don’t expect your spouse to fulfill your every need. When you’re an activist, don’t put your hope in the results. When you’re in trouble don’t depend on yourself. Don’t depend on people. Depend on God.
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
Love people for the sake of God, but never love God for the sake of people.
Yasmin Mogahed
You cried when He took away your drop of water, not knowing He'd saved for you, the sea.
Yasmin Mogahed
The traveler walks through many mirages before he finds water.
Yasmin Mogahed
You have trouble feeling alive, so you stab your own heart just to feel something. It was the emptiness that was killing you. You created the sadness and the fear to fill it.
Yasmin Mogahed
Be careful about wanting what others have. There is always a price. Perhaps God didn’t give it to you, because He knew you wouldn’t be able to pay it.
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
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.
