Tawwakul is not an act of the limbs-it is an act of the heart. And so while the limbs are striving hard, the heart is completely reliant on Allah. This means whatever the outcome of the limbs' striving, the heart will be completely satisfied, knowing that it is the flawless decision of Allah. But in order to reach this level, one must hold on to hope, strive with the limbs, and let go with the heart.

In dunya, the image is always better than the reality. In Jennah, the Reality is better than any image ever could be.

Never curse a fall. The ground is where humility lives.

You can’t 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 isn’t Him you’re running towards.

In any nation, the hypocrites do not become apparent except during times of fitnah (severe tests and hardships).

Like the sun that sets at the end of the day, so too will Ramadan come and go, leaving only it's mark on our heart's sky.

Before anything can break your heart, it must first own your heart. Stop handing your heart to dunya-it'll stop breaking it.
