When Allah grants us the sense to ask Him for forgiveness, then He has granted us a huge favor. It's a sign that He wants to forgive us.

I should be grateful for the tough times because Allah chose me, thought I was good enough to go through it.

I'm grateful for believing in a religion that can naturally adapt to changing times yet uphold timeless values and principles.

There is nothing wrong with having a good job, there is nothing wrong with having a nice house, there is nothing wrong with that. There is something wrong when that is your goal.

Islam doesn't try to destroy cultures; it cleans them up. You can keep your language but get rid of your racist speech. You can keep your style of cooking, but get rid of alcohol. You can keep your cultural dresses, but keep your modesty on the highest level.

The people who test your patience are a blessing.. Without them, you can't practice patience.

Our religion doesn't demand perfection but instead a manageable strive to better ourselves.
