CONTENTS

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

As a revert Muslimah , there have been many times that I felt discouraged or disappointed by problems, situations, or people. There have been times that I felt like I needed something more to help supplement my spiritual growth. This is when I use positive affirmations. There are many books out with affirmations, but there are not many books written specifically for Muslimahs. I decided to create one geared for Muslimahs. I hope each of you, reading this book, can fully implement the affirmations in your lives. I hope it becomes a valuable supplement for you as you continue your Islamic growth.

Thank you to my children, Sergeant Spencer and college freshman Sophia. You both continue to be highly positive and supportive of my endeavors. I love

you both very much, and you both remain my most extraordinary creations. May Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala bless you both, my loves.

And to Lola, the teeniest, tiniest, most special little dog ever!
