One thing I've always struggled with in life is loving people too much. It's painful when that love is not reciprocated. But one thing I always comfort myself with is the fact that Allah will always show greater love to those who love Him. Allah doesn't disappoint you so keep your heart attached to Him.

Imagine if your kids had to carry a ladder to climb an apartheid wall to get to school everyday.

When people wear you out, spend some time in isolation with Allah and your relationship with Him will improve as well as with the people.

If you complain that Allah is testing you too much, you're failing the test.

Sometimes Allah gives you bitterness in this life so that you can further enjoy the sweetness of the hereafter.

Being unashamedly Muslim while excelling in whatever you do is of the greatest forms of Dawah.

Renew your intention EVERY day, EVERY time you pray, and EVERY time you are about to do a good deed or else shaytan will lead your heart and mind astray.
