The Dunya is like the ocean and our heart is like the ship. If a ship allows the water to enter, it will sink. Just like when we allow the Dunya to enter our heart.
Yasmin MogahedThis pain in your heart was created to make you yearn less for this life. And to yearn more for jennah. Allahu akbar
Yasmin MogahedBeware of what you let enter your heart. There will come a day when you'd give anything to remove it.
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.
Yasmin Mogahed
