...Tomorrow is not guaranteed. This moment is all we have. The past won't return but has many lessons for us to learn. Learn them. The future is promised to no one yet we have faith and we prepare. Prepare for it. And as we do be present - be in this moment and focus on it - as these moments are what make up our whole life

...There are Shepherds, there are sheep's and there are wolves. Which one is you? :)
...Confused? Don't know which way to turn? Heart says one thing and mind says another? Hand your heart over to God and ask Him to guide and inspire it. We spend so much time with the creation and forget the Creator. Walk to Him...He's waiting to run to you! Really!
Khadijah (ra) - what a Woman!
She was the first CEO of her own businesses and had others dealing on her behalf, first Muslimah in Islam, the first wife of Rasool-Allah and a mother who raised some wonderful daughters. Subhan'Allah! One of four inspirational ladies I will be talking about and drawing lessons from her life for us all. 'Who the Heaven am I?' One day intensive Islamic Personal and Spiritual development workshop for Muslimahs - UK & Global - Summer 2013 *Pre-Workshop lecture now available for bookings* #WTHAI2013 ...There's a lack of humanity in our world. If we put aside our differences such as colour, religion, ethnicity, nationality etc then we have something in common - and that is being human. And as soon as we act upon being human the sooner we can start healing our world.
...Sectarianism breeds hatred - deep rooted type of hatred - because everyone believes they are right and they are the only one's entitled to Jannah. We forget that we will ultimately only enter Jannah by Allah's mercy. Its time to be human again. Everyone has a right to life - as our life was given to us by God and not our fellow humans. If it wasn't for God's mercy we wouldn't even exist. Reflect and think.
...What great things are you doing for yourself, family and world? What legacy do you want to leave behind when you leave this world? How do you want to be remembered? I want to be remembered as the girl who made a difference in this world one soul at a time by helping people find their unique purpose in life and connecting them back with their ultimate purpose of worshipping God - connecting them back to God, insha'Allah. You were created for greatness. Live on purpose - with purpose!
...Sometimes it can get too much. Even if you feel that you're on the right tracks, you can get overwhelmed. When this happens, I always remind myself and ask myself; 'Why did God create me?'. 'What is my purpose?'. 'What is my ultimate vision?'. These three questions seem so basic but they always get me back on track. Its ok to have 'one of those days' as we need these type of days to help us get back on track and re-connect with our purpose. Hope that helps insha'Allah :)
'Every Soul Shall Taste Death!'. This is our daily reminder. This is the ONLY truth and ONLY ultimate reality. We are not meant to be here forever. We're on a journey. We are travellers. Our ultimate destination is the next life - Heaven or Hell. This life is meant to bring ups and downs, tests and trials. The reality is that souls are departing this world at nano-seconds. Were they prepared? Are we prepared? Take your provision for the journey - but let's not get too comfortable. We don't want to lose our next life because we were too focused on this life!
...Do we desire the pleasure of people over the pleasure of Allah? All actions and intentions are for Allah alone - especially our worship (ibaadah). Its easy to fall into the 'Am I good enough for others?' trap and then try to please others. We're human and we will go through this. You might be going through it now. But we need to work on it daily to overcome it as well as help each other to overcome it. Let's make this our daily reflection action insha'Allah :)
