To some,Islam is nothing but a code of rules and regulations.But,to those who understand,it is a perfect vision of life
Yasmin MogahedTry not to confuse attachment with love. Attachment is about fear and dependency, and has more to do with love of self than love of another. Love without attachment is the purest love because it isn't about what others can give you because your empty. It is about what you can give others because you're already full.
Yasmin MogahedWhen you Rectify your Relationship with the Creator, He Rectifies your relationship with All of the Creation.
Yasmin MogahedSo often it hurts us that we are not able to focus in our prayers. Remember, the more you focus on Allah outside your salah, the easier it will be to focus on Him inside your salah. What occupies you in salah, is what occupies you outside of salah. Try to fill your mind and heart with Allah as much as you can throughout your day. Talk to Him, make duaa to Him constantly. This will build your personal relationship with Him. Then, going to salah will be like coming home to an old friend.
