RECENT POSTS AND PRAISE

One year ago my fiancé/husband decided to call it quits on me, and I was devastated. I was confused,

sad, upset; you name it. Alhamdulilah though, it had led me to stumble upon your writings. This past

year has been a very emotional year however an excellent learning process to mend my heart

correctly. I learned only Allah belongs in the heart and the rest is a gift that belongs in the hand; even

if they are halal things. Your writings have helped me so much there are no words to describe it.

Three weeks ago my father Allah yirhamo (May God have mercy on him) passed away very suddenly

leaving my entire family and community shocked and devastated; yet my first thought was Inna lillah

w Inna elayhi raji3oon, to Allah we belong and to Him we shall return; my dad went Home inshAllah.

Instead of getting upset, I found myself truly thankful Allah chose him to be my dad and let me have

had him for as long as I did. Regardless of the situation, Allah always chooses the best for us, so I

believe this was the best time for him to go.

I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart, because had I not learned and reflected on your

writings, I don′t think I would be who I am today, handling the loss of one of my favorite people in the

world. I would like to say it was one specific piece of writing that inspired me, but it wasn′t; it was

your entire collection. I make dua Allah rewards you immensely, and continuously inspires you and

allows you to keep doing what you′re doing. May Allah bless and protect your loved ones. Please

make dua for my father.

I would like to extend my gratitude to you, for changing my life completely, Allah bless you dear. I

was going through terrible phase of my life, darkness, depression, hollowness and negativity was all

over me. Then I stumbled upon your articles. Enlightened I am now! Alhamadulillah. Thank you and

keep writing as Allah ′′the Great′′ has blessed you with this quality. May Allah accept all duaa′s

(supplications) I′m making for you ....actually this the only one thing I can say, because no words are

enough!

Your words hit me so hard I had to slow down whilst reading and breathe. I always took pride in not

being superficial, in not being materialistic all the while depending on people I loved to make me

happy. And when they let me down or left me, it shook my world, the very ground I stood on. There is

a constant need to be loved, and from love I derive happiness. But it is a constant battle to realize that

this love is to come from my relationship with Allah and not people. I′m an idealist, a giver, giving

joy to others makes me happy; but it is so hard to understand and remember that no, these people, this

life, is not to be expected of. Alhumdulillah reading your words was like taking a good hard look at

myself, one that I wasn’t ready to take... this helps so much. God bless you for being real.

—Mehar

I just want to take this time to tell you that I absolutely love your articles. I am an avid reader since I

was 8. I have devoured the self-help sections in book stores, I love Rumi, Ghazzali, Iqbal, and many

many amazing writers who speak to the soul. Why am I telling you this- because after reading the

writings of so many brilliant people, I have found my heart and soul in your work. You are definitely

one of my favorite writers. Whenever I need inspiration I go back to your articles. Also I have found

someone I love dearly, I consider him my soul mate, and my love for him has made me so attached to

him. It is only through your work that I am learning to love the One who is never lost and holding on

to the Bond that never breaks! You have taught me what true love is really about! I love your work.

You inspire me immensely. And yes my brother too loves your work, so do my friends. I pray that

Allah gives you everything of the best and continues making you a means to inspire us all towards His

love! With much love, hugs and duas!

I chanced upon your website and videos not too long ago. Just before that I′ve been seeking out ′food

for my soul′ for my heart. Words that would heal my rusty heart. Then I came across your blog and

videos. Mashallah, sister I have no words to describe the effect your writings have on my heart and

soul. Each word you write touches my heart and crumbles my nafs (ego) and brings me to tears. I

cannot thank you enough for your inspirational work and for the constant reminders that you give us

through your work. May Allah (swt) grant you the highest Jannah and reward you in dunya and

aakhira.

Thank you thank you and thank you.

Tawakkul Karman reminds me of Yasmin Mogahed. The former sparks an outer revolution and the

latter sparks an internal revolution.

—mA

Yasmin, I don′t know you and you don′t know me, but I feel that you′re so close to me! Every single

would you wrote touches me deeply!

—Noor

I think I was living a hypocritical life, where I just say that I love Allah, but my actions do not reflect

the same. The Transformation in my life came when I started knowing the real essence and meaning of

LOVE Allah from your articles and lectures. Alhamdulillah. And soon then EVERYTHING in my life

set STRAIGHT..!

—Nazeer

MashAllah, Allah has gifted you with the ability to penetrate right to one’s heart, shake it and get it to

start working the way it should! Thank You Allah for people like Yasmin Mogahed:)

—Ghazi A.

May Allah bless you and protect you forever and ever. May you go to heaven and live there happily

ever after. Never under estimate the lives your words touch. Inshallahrabanayanthur 3aleiki be3ayn al
