Yasmin Mogahed
As I complete another year of my life, there’s a lot going on inside me. It’s hard to judge motion. Our journey through this life is not a journey of ‘accomplishments’. It’s a journey of the heart. One can move from worldly position to worldly position, but if the heart is unchanged, there was no movement at all. Like a person running on a treadmill, he has tired himself—but moved nowhere. I ask Allah to protect me from such a deception. I ask Allah to remake my heart, to beautify and rectify it. I ask to finally be free. Because my heart is so enslaved and covered with chains. I ask Allah to change me and forgive me for all my deficiencies. And I ask for your forgiveness and your duaas. We are all struggling, stumbling, trying desperately to make it back Home. I love you all for the sake of Allah.
