If you allow dunya to own your heart, like the ocean that owns the boat, it will take over. You will sink down to the depths of the sea. You will touch the ocean floor.

This pain in your heart was created to make you yearn less for this life. And to yearn more for jennah. Allahu akbar

If you want the love of the people, stop running after it. The more you chase it, the more it escapes you. Love doesn't come from the people. It comes from God.

Don't think being 'religious' means becoming harsh or hard. When Allah enters a heart, He softens it--He doesn't harden it.

If you're having trouble waking up for fajr, set your alarm to play Quran. It works!

Don't get attached to moments. Good or bad, they all pass.

If you want to focus more on Allah in your prayers, focus more on Him outside your prayers.
