Sometimes being let down my a human being is the direct cause for you finding your own strength & depending only on Allah.

Your success does not depend on the failure of others.

Sometimes the person that excites you most isn't necessarily going to make the best husband or wife. It takes a lot to see past the glamor and glitter when you're looking to get married and look for someone who's going to be a loving companion that will stand by your side no matter what and better you while also seeking to be bettered by you.

Your true friends dont shy away from keeping you in check because your wellbeing is more important to them than even your friendship and they'd rather risk offending you than watch you harm yourself.

Don't make your wedding a pleasant memory in this life but a source of misery in the next. Make it an eternally good memory. In trying to have a halal wedding, you might sacrifice many relationships but the opposite might mean sacrificing the only relationship that will matter in the hereafter for a bunch of people who don't even really care about you. Don't make one night the cause of your regret for an eternity.

Sometimes you don't realize how special something is until you lose it. Thats how I feel about Ramadan every year.

Talk to Allah in your own language with your heart fully present. Allah doesn't need you to rhyme or speak arabic.
