Proud to be a Slave of Allah
***
And the one who runs after a mirage, never gets there; but keeps running. And so too will you keep running, and be willing to lose sleep, cry, bleed, and sacrifice precious parts of yourself—at times, even your own dignity. But you’ll never reach what you’re looking for in this life, because what you seek isn’t a worldly destination. The type of perfection you seek cannot be found in the material world. It can only be found in God.
-Yasmine Mogaheh
Oh Allah , How can I thank you enough, when thanking you is itself
a blessing that is deserving of thanks… I will never be thank enough ;’(

Arrogance and Pride if anything lead us away from Heaven.
What we don’t realize by constantly associating a whole set of ideas and principles with people, is that we are not basing our judgements and conclusion with facts but rather with the interpretation of those facts by ppl. Islam is PERFECT, Muslims aren’t. The doctrine and the wisdom behind Islam can not and should not be judged on the interpretations made by followers that have based their knowledge on nothing else then hearsay and their own understanding of something far more complex than the small talk they make of it.
