If a Muslim posts something about Islam, don't assume that they are claiming to be perfect or pious. We are all sinners. They are just reminding themselves and others, because Allah says, "And remind, for indeed, the reminder benefits the believers." [Qur'an 51:55]
وإذا خسرت كل شيء ، فلن تفقد الله ، وهذا غني تمامًا ومطمئن
And if you lost everything, you did not lose God, and this is completely hopeful and reassuring.
سبحان الله وبحمدِه، سبحان الله العظيم سبحان الله وبحمدِه، سبحان الله العظيم
And I have no door [to knock upon] but the door of Allah
حسبي الله و نعم الوكيل
“Home is in my hair, my lips, my arms, my thighs, my feet and my hands. I am my own home. And when I wake up crying in the morning, thinking of how lonely I am, I pinch my skin, tug at my hair, remind myself that I am alive. Remind myself to step outside and greet the morning. Remind myself that it’s all about forward motion. It’s all about change. It’s all about that elusive state. Freedom.”
