obstruction between my eyes and its beauty. The obstruction was a face,

“If you study Islam with understanding, you’ll realize its scope—how open it is. It is not a faith subscribing to narrow-mindedness and meanness; there’s no place for these in Islam. It begins with I and moves on to we—from the individual to the community. Islam does not expect you to sit on a prayer mat all day, a cap on your head and a rosary in your hands, doing nothing but praying and preaching. In fact, it asks you to make your life an example of fair dealing, devotion, honesty and diligence. It asks for sincerity and steadfastness. A good Muslim convinces others not by his words but his deeds.”
― Umera Ahmed, Pir-E-Kamil: The Perfect Mentor

“The wast majority of my thoughts revolved around her as though she was the center of my mind's gravity.”
