Not letting our mood affect the way we treat people is a forgotten sunnah

When you’re going through something hard and you start wondering where Allah is, just remember, the Teacher is always quiet during a test.

Sabr is not remaining quiet and allowing anger to build up inside you. Sabr is to talk about what's bothering you without losing control of your emotions.

The people who test your patience are a blessing.. Without them, you can't practice patience.

There is nothing wrong with having a good job, there is nothing wrong with having a nice house, there is nothing wrong with that. There is something wrong when that is your goal.

When you find yourself in a position to help someone, be happy because Allah is answering that person’s prayer through you.

If someone corrects you, and you feel offended, then YOU have an EGO problem

If shaytan has entered into your heart - evil will look beautiful to you and good will seem tiring and exhausting.

Guilt is a gift from Allah warning you that what you are doing is violating your soul

What you desire is what you want, what you have is what Allah wants.

Every relationship has tough days. Don't let the grudge last. Be the first to try to make things right and stop waiting for an apology.

I'm the girl nobody knows until she commits suicide. Then suddenly everyone had a class with her.

Because when you’re really scared to do something … do it right away.

My mom grew up in the Soviet Bloc, and she was a Tiger Mom. We didn't get away with much.

I think playing any iconic role when you're stepping into big shoes, into the shadow of people who have come before you and you can't process that.

I quit when I was 52, and everybody was telling me that I was too young and I'd be bored - all of those things.

A gentleman doesn't kiss and tell

Everyone can lock into the rhythm on a tune. It's organic in nature. It connects the band as a whole and connects the band to the audience.

That which was hard to endure is sweet to remember.

Noam Chomsky skittles and skithers all over the political landscape to distract the reader’s attention from the plain truth.

Be a leader, not a superior.
