For this entry I would like to share about Yasmin Mogahed's (pronounced mu-ja-hid) book "Reclaim Your Heart".
Yasmin Mogahed's Reclaim Your Heart |
I got this as a gift from my beloved sister. She sells this and gave a copy to me as an insight reclaiming my heart back to what is rightful.
Life as we know it evolves around people and things we love most. Our love for dunya, this world, has actually made us forget that we yearn for Allah's love, our Creator. His love is everlasting and eternal, yet the love we yearn from humankind are temporary. When we love, we become attached and when we become attached we will feel pain due to the loss. This book is about love, loss, happiness and pain.
Personally, after reading this book, I felt that Yasmin's writing connected with mine in the most simplest form of words. Its not a heavy reading and can be read anywhere. Its a new insight that I have never read about or heard of and is a really good read.
Here is a trailer about her book.
You can also listen to some of her works on Yasmin Mogahed's Youtube profile.
