“Being a woman in today’s world must be hard. So much is expected of you and everyone is on your case. Doomed if you work, and doomed if you stay home. Told how to dress, and it’s never good enough. It must be really tough! Remember, Allah created you perfectly and if you work on perfecting your relationship with Him, there lies your happiness.

Muhammad Ibn Faqih

“The more time you spend complaining about your problems, the less time you’ll have to enjoy your blessings.

“Imagine that you’re shopping with someone you love. No, not just someone you love. Someone you’re madly in love with. Now suppose that this person picks out a gift for you in a particular color and style. How would you feel about that gift? Chances are you’ll cherish it simply because of who gave it to you, simply because of who picked it out for you. There are things, events, people in your life that Allah has picked out for you. Are you pleased with His choice? Do we not love the gift simply because of who picked it out? You will know you really love someone, when you love anything that comes from them—no matter what it is. And you will love their gift, not for any quality in the gift itself—but only for who it came from.

Yasmin Mogahed

“Lest the eye of a stranger should fall upon it, do not show off your good deed to men; If your desire from faith is security, seek your security in seclusion.What is the place of seclusion? The house of the heart; become habituated to dwell in the heart; […]Be silent, and practice the art of silence; let go all artful bragging;For the heart is the place of faith, there in the heart hold fast to faithfulness.”

Rumi

“Do not look to trials and tribulations as calamities, but look to them as opportunities to be stronger as you emerge from them with less sins, more reward, higher status, and an increase in experience and wisdom.

Abdulbary Yahya

“Don’t overestimate your piety, the only way you will be protected from sin is by the help of Allah.

Abdulbary Yahya
