Yasmin Mogahed
“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.”
Yasmin Mogahed, Reclaim Your Heart: Personal Insights on Breaking Free from Life's Shackles

“Ka'b ibn Malik reported that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Two hungry wolves loose among sheep do not cause as much damage as that caused to a man's deen by his greed for money and reputation.”
At-Tirmidhi

“If Islam was to be saved, it would be saved by the crazy ones.”
Michael Muhammad Knight, Taqwacores: A Novel

“He(Prophet Muhammad) laid the foundation of a universal government. His law was one for all. Equal justice and love for everyone.”
Rev. B. Margoliouth

Abdal Hakim Murad
“Yet she belongs, finally and truly, only to God. The hijab is a symbol of freedom from the male regard, but also, in our time, of freedom from subjugation by the iron fist of materialism, deterministic science, and the death of meaning. It denotes softness, otherness, inwardness. She is not only caught in a world of power relations, but she inhabits a world of love and sacrifice. This freedom, which is of the conscience, is hers to exercise as she will.”
Abdal Hakim Murad, Commentary on the Eleventh Contentions
