The body that we tend to is only temporary, while the soul that we neglect is #โ eternal .
Yasmin MogahedIgnoring a Reality doesn't make it less Real. It's still going to happen. Being unprepared for something doesn't stop it from happening.
Yasmin MogahedDon't expect your spouse to be perfect. He/she is only the dunya version of themselves. Their 'perfect' version is saved for jennah.
Yasmin MogahedYou canโt run in more than one direction at a time. And you will only run in the direction you are facing. So if your heart is facing anything other than Allah, it isnโt Him youโre running towards.
Yasmin MogahedNever lose hope. Stay close to Allah and when you mess up, go back to Him. Never, ever stop going back to Him. Repent often. Cry to Allah. And hold on tight-with your life-to His remembrance and to prayer. If you do this, you may get wet, but insha Allah never drown in this ocean of dunya.
