Only Allah knows what you went through

By Omar Suleiman

By Arshad Gamiet
Do not make the approval of the world the measure of your faith. If you spend your life seeking validation from those who wish you to abandon your identity, you will never know peace. Anchor yourself instead to the One whose approval truly matters.,,,
