Reclaim Your Heart

Product Information

My value as a woman is not measured by the size of my waist or the number of men who like me. My worth as a human being is measured on a higher scale: a scale of righteousness and piety. And my purpose in life-despite what fashion magazines say-is something more sublime than just looking good for men.” Greatness is for those who purify their hearts, waiting for the Divine call. Greatness is for those who see life as a fleeting moment. Greatness is for those who see love, betrayal, disappointments, cravings, desires, needs, and wants, as materials of this world. For true love lies in sanctifying one’s heart for the one whose love was the first and will be the last — Allah!

As a result of it being taken, we turn to Allah wholeheartedly. In that desperation and need, we ask, we beg, we pray. Through the loss, we reach a level of sincerity and humility and dependence on Him which we would otherwise not reach—had it not been taken from us. Through the loss, our hearts turn entirely to face Him.” A book which teaches its readers how to swim through the ocean of life, knowing it is nothing but a place of delusion.” CONTAINS SPOILERSLike the sun that sets at the end of the day, so too will Ramadan come and go, leaving only it's mark on our heart's sky.” Reclaim your heart is a breath of fresh air that uplifts the spirit, nourishes the mind and heals the soul.

That broken heart and that pain are lessons and signs for us. They are warnings that something is wrong. They are warnings that we need to make a change. Just like the pain of being burned is what warns us to remove our hand from the fire, emotional pain warns us that we need to make an internal change. We need to detach. Pain is a form of forced detachment. Like the loved one who hurts you again and again and again, the more dunya hurts us, the more we inevitably detach from it. The more we inevitably stop loving it.” If you allow dunya to own your heart, like the ocean that owns the boat, it will take over. You will sink down to the depths of the sea. You will touch the ocean floor.”

To empty the heart does not mean to not love. On the contrary, true love, as God intented it, is purest when it is not based on a false attachment. The process of first emptying the heart can be found in the beginning half of the shahada (declaration of faith).” A Letter to the Culture that Raised Me] I'm not here to be on display. And my body is not for public consumption. I will not be reduced to an object, or a pair of legs to sell shoes. I'm a soul, a mind, a servant of God. My worth is defined by the beauty of my soul, my heart, my moral character. So I won't worship your beauty standards, and I don't submit to your fashion sense. My submission is to something higher.” Time of difficulty test our faith, our fortitude and our strenght. During these times, the level of our imaan becomes manifest”
