Escaping Reality

“Who taught you to hate the texture of your hair? Who taught you to hate the color of your skin? Who taught you to hate the shape of your nose and the shape of your lips? Who taught you to hate yourself from the top of your head to the soles of your feet? Who taught you to hate your own kind? Who taught you to hate the race that you belong to so much so that you don’t want to be around each other? You know. Before you come asking Mr. Muhammad does he teach hate, you should ask yourself who taught you to hate being what God made you.”

“The most powerful weapon against stress is our ability to choose one thought over another. Train your mind to see the good in everything.”

“You live most of your life inside of your head. Make sure it’s a nice place to be.”

When you treat people well, those same people might not treat you the same way. But if you pay attention, you’ll notice that Allah has sent other people who treat you even better.

You only need Allāh. No matter what situation you’re in, no matter where you are. No matter who you’re with. You only need Allāh. Put your trust in Him. Rely on Him only. Hold on to that rope, so tightly. Never ever let it go. You only need Allāh. Tell yourself that and believe in it. No one will understand you like He does, no one will help you as He does and no one will ever be there for you as He is.
