Sometimes you search so hard for words. You look for a way to interpret the language of this heart and the unspoken bond you feel. But in the end you are left with nothing but silence. And deep down you hope itโs understood.
Yasmin MogahedEverything we do is motivated by love. Even fear and hate are born of love. So be careful what you love.

Yasmin MogahedMy value as a woman is not measured by the size of my waist or the number of men who like me. My worth as a human being is measured on a higher scale: a scale of righteousness and piety. And my purpose in life-despite what fashion magazines say-is something more sublime than just looking good for men.
Yasmin MogahedWe often wonder why God gives and takes, constricts and expands. What we forget is that human beings understand things by their opposites. Without dark, we canโt understand light. Without hardship, we wouldnโt *experience* ease. Without the existence of deprivation and loss, we couldnโt grasp the need for gratitude or the virtue of patience. And without separation, we wouldnโt taste the sweetness of reunion. Glory be to the one who givesโeven when He takes.
