Yasmin MogahedOn that Day, we will see the true reality. On that Day, we will realize that two rak`at (units) of prayer were greater than everything in the heavens and the earth.

Yasmin MogahedWhen we canโt marry the person we had in mind, our inability to look beyond may even blind sight us from someone who is in fact better for us.

Often Allah takes things away from us, only to replace them with something greater.
