Stay Beautiful

Heaven awaits our martyrs, while a blazing fire awaits their oppressors. New York, Seattle, Virginia. Waiting to see where life takes me next. Muslim. Pakistani American. Not a teen.

“Everyone you meet always asks if you have a career, are married or own a house; as if life was some kind of grocery list. But nobody ever asks if you are happy.”

Know ya fucking worth, and stop letting these shitty ass people take advantage of you

“As Muslims we should forgive but should we forget? A believer is not stung in the same hole twice. Being merciful is different from being naive. Don’t allow yourself be taken advantage of. That’s not how a believer functions.”

— Omar Suleiman

With my hijab, I put my faith on display—rather than my beauty. My value as a human is defined by my relationship with God, not by my looks. I cover the irrelevant. And when you look at me, you don’t see a body. You view me only for what I am: a servant of my Creator.

You see, as a Muslim woman, I’ve been liberated from a silent kind of bondage. I don’t answer to the slaves of God on earth. I answer to their King.

I used to think friendship was sleepovers and play dates. Now I know it’s not. Friendship is three in the morning talks about what happened the day before and why the hell you’re still awake. Friendship is three in the afternoon laughing so hard you’re on the floor at a corny joke for the third time that day. Friendship is sitting there eating in silence because you would rather eat than talk (and they would too). Friendship is love in the strangest ways when all else is lost.
