Never 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 MogahedStop trying to make this life into what it cannot and never was intended to be: jennah. Only then will it stop breaking your heart.
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 MogahedI loved. I lost. So I learned to love what is never lost. Then even what I loved that can be lost was through what cannot be lost...so it was never lost.
Yasmin MogahedThere's a special place in my heart for the ones who were with me at my lowest and still loved me when I wasn't very loveable.
