Gold will melt, money will burn, but you carry the everlasting and mysterious breath of God inside of you and that can never be taken away.

because it is His love that brought you to life and His love that keeps you alive

Where Allah is metaphorically whole, we are nothing but holes. We are made of atoms, which are 99.99999 percent made of empty space.2 In essence, when we reach for anything in existence other than Allah, we are reaching for emptiness.

Even though we are often not aware of it, God is always blessing us with His miracles and answering our prayers.

God sends hope in the most desperate moments. Don’t forget , the heaviest rain comes out of the darkest clouds.”
RUMI

God sees the tears you hide with smiles and He embraces the pain you think no one would understand. “Not even an atom’s weight in the heavens or the earth remains hidden from Him” (34:3).

despite the transcendence of His essence, God is closer to us than our “jugular vein” (50:16).

“What is meant for you, will reach you even if it is beneath two mountains. And what is not meant for you will not reach you even if it’s between your two lips.”

Fasting is not about losing body weight; it’s about losing the weight of your sins and learning to detach from the ego that weighs you down.

When we are asked to restrain the ego, our addictions reveal themselves, giving us the awareness needed to break free from them. When we can no longer dull the pain of our emptiness with outer forms, we are forced to search for the root of our longing.
