T]here is no other purpose of my existence except to know, love and get closer to God. This is the one and only reason why I was created. And this is the most essential realization, as it defines everything else I do or believe. It defines all things around me, and everything I experience in life.
Yasmin MogahedYour life is nothing more than a love story. Between you and God. Nothing more. Every person, every experience, every gift, every loss, every pain is sent to your path for one reason and one reason only: to bring you back to Him.
Yasmin MogahedTime of difficulty test our faith, our fortitude and our strenght. During these times, the level of our imaan becomes manifest
Yasmin MogahedSometimes this world comes between us and what we love. But if we are patient, when this world passes away, there will be no more separation.
Yasmin MogahedMost of all, we must never be deceived. We must never allow ourselves to think that anything in this world succeeds, fails, is given, taken, done, or undone without Allah. It is only by our connection to our Creator that we rise or fall in life, in our relationship with our worldโand with all of humanity.
