“There are capacities I won’t have until I recognise the power of Allah in all things.”

“When Allah tries you; He will teach you, He will purify you through it, and finally He will elevate you if you pass your test.”
“The friend I had been waiting and searching for wasn’t going to be anyone else if I didn’t hold that space for myself.”
“The Qur’an is a Shifa’a (source of healing). And when our hearts are feeling overwhelmed, turn to the Qur’an and seek the shifa’a from it because it’s there and it’s for us to try and unlock it.”
“Dreaming is not enough. You have to act, make the effort and put your trust in Allah.”
“When you have that 100% trust in Allah, it’s the ‘why not’ not the ‘why’.”
