Always walking along despite the dangers and adversities, despite the injustices and horrors, trusting in God so as not to despair of men and events.

Your sensitivity is power. Don't let people transform your qualities into weaknesses.

We need modesty not only in the way we dress; we need intellectual modesty.

We need to challenge the dominant culture: by ethics, principles and values.

We always think from where we come from. We always think from the sources that shape our understanding. I think about the world through the lens of my Islamic tradition. I accept this but I must also have intellectual humility.

Humility is my table, respect is my garment, empathy is my food and curiosity is my drink. As for love, it has a thousand names and is by my side at every window.
