"If you cannot have good faith in God due to His attributes, at least have good faith due to His actual dealing with you. Has He not accustomed you only to His goodness towards you? Has He not given you except His favors?" -Ibn AtaAllah

This #Ramadan, make a firm commitment to use words to build people up. Stop using foul language, bad speech & don’t curse & swear. Words are powerful. They leave a lasting impact. So let nothing else but good come out of your mouth. The effects will resonate far and wide.

Volunteer after volunteer stopped by the mosque with pillows & blankets. They ordered and personally delivered dinner for our entire bus. This morning, we woke up to fresh @dunkindonuts and @panerabread. Thank you to the amazing Muslim community from @MakeSpace1 for generosity.
Last night after the @womensmarch, our Chicago bus was grounded with worsening weather and road conditions. What could've been a logistical nightmare became a beautiful experience with a mosque @MakeSpace1 in VA opening their doors and hearts to welcome 40 women and children. 1/

Almighty. On this blessed day, we pray for those who are on the verge of losing hope & broken. Those who are trying to shake off their past mistakes & return to You. Those who cry alone at night while the world sleeps. Comfort them. Grant them ease & healing. Aameen.

When you feel like you’re losing everything you’ve dreamed of, know that it’s the Almighty testing your faith. Whatever hardship He puts in your path, know that He’s always with you, every step of the way. Don’t lose hope. Don’t lose your faith. He has the best plans for you! – at South Africa

You may think the hardest trials are with your wealth, health or loss of a loved one. But the tragic truth is the worst trial is possibly a heart that is hardened, a heart that feels nothing when a sin is committed and a heart that rejects repeated warnings! – at Harare, Zimbabwe

We’ve all felt like a failure at times. But don’t drown in that feeling. Remember, the battles you’ve won, the setbacks you’ve overcome, the trials you’ve gone through. The Almighty promised that nothing would last. Keep hope alive & carry on. He’s always watching over you!

Pray for those who are struggling with difficulties that no one knows about. They hide it from the world, always smiling and people think they're actually happy. Only their faith in the Almighty keeps them going. May the Almighty grant them a way out!

Everything is the way it is for a reason. You’ve got to believe it. You’ve got to trust the Almighty’s plan for you. Whatever’s going on in your life, the journey continues. Nothing comes to a standstill. Have faith that it will all work out in the end!

Look back on your life & think; did the Almighty not bring you through some tough times? Those difficult days you never thought you would emerge from and see the light? Not only did He get you through them, He also taught you how to do better the next time; so stop worrying!
