- OMID SAFI, Professor of Middle Eastern Studies at Duke University and author of Radical Love: Teachings from the Islamic Mystical Tradition
"I am simply entranced by A. Helwa's metaphors and insights. The bulk of her sentences are poetry in motion and studded with pearls of wisdom. Fragrant with beauty. Many of the sentences are musical...Enchanting! The creative way Helwa has integrated her heart knowledge into her understanding of Islam is stunning."
- IMAM JAMAL RAHMAN, Author of Spiritual Gems of Islam
"A marvelous book that gives a sound grasp of this great religion and nourishment to the heart we deeply need. This book is a source of majesty and beauty."
- DR. FAWZIA AL-RAWI, Author of Divine Names: The 99 Healing Names of the One Love
Whether you identify as a Muslim whose faith has perhaps grown weary or as someone who would like to taste of the essence of a tradition you do not understand, Secrets of Divine Love is a masterful map of the landscape of the soul on its journey home to the One who both transcends and dwells within all that is."
- MIRABAI STARR, Author of God of Love: A Guide to the Heart of Judaism, Christianity and Islam
"Secrets of Divine Love is the product of A. Helwa's earnest search for truth and meaning. It is also her invitation to us, the readers, to see what she has seen. This is a fascinating book that offers various profound insights and a vision of Islam--and indeed the Divine--that many readers will surely find enlightening and uplifting."
- MOHAMMAD KHALIL, Professor of Islamic Studies at Michigan State University
"Secrets of Divine Love opens with one word -- "Love." This word appears and reappears, until the reader comes to understand only a fraction of the ways that God pours His light on them...One regularly is flushed with examples of God's compassion, kindness, forgiveness, patience, and comfort. This is simply a wonderful book, written with care and precision, weaving us into God's beautiful tapestry."
- DR. NAZITA LAJEVARDI, Assistant Professor at Michigan State University and author of Outsiders at Home: The Politics of American Islamophobia

5.0 out of 5 stars I can’t say enough good things about this beautiful book
Almost every page of mine is dog-earred. It’s the kind of book you want to go back to and read when your spirits are down and you are doing some soul searching. Makes you fall in love with Allah. Don’t listen to naysayer fundamentalists who poo poo it. It’s awesome! Buy it! Full of lesser known esoteric wisdom that will open your heart to the beauty of Islam.
5.0 out of 5 stars Imagine this! A book that will cause you to fall in love with God!
This is not simply a book, it is a treasure chest, nay, a gold mine filled with precious insights, deep wisdom, and heartfelt guidance that will fill you up with inspiration and joy whenever you pick it up. Helwa has managed to mine the topic of spirituality in a way that speaks to seekers of any faith tradition, although it will be especially precious to Muslims. Whether she is writing about prayer, love, emotional struggles, repentance, or even death, she speaks with tenderness, encouragement, and practical wisdom. Muslims will especially appreciate her loving and tender attitude toward God and God’s creation, the Prophet Mohammad, and all of the basic tenets of Islamic practice. She never commands, scolds, or threatens, but rather, in a divinely feminine way, she illuminates, encourages, and praises Allah with such loving sincerity that it’s impossible not to share her enthusiasm and feel uplifted. The book is filled with verses of wisdom and beauty from the Qur'an, beautiful poetic metaphors, sometimes humorous and always powerful teaching stories, and simple but effective spiritual practices that take the reader deeper with each chapter. This is a book not so much to read, but to live, to breathe, and to experience.
5.0 out of 5 stars Spiritually Enlightening
It does not surprise me how this beautiful mind and soul has come to such fruition. From enjoying her creative, spiritually inspiring poetry as she was growing up , to her mesmerizing speeches and discussions. I couldn't have been more excited to purchase this wonderful book of hers.Her wisdom and love for the Divine is so magical in how she helps others to realize such a beautiful existence and how it can enlighten our minds and souls to a more greater depth, to be the shining light and guiding compass.The book is a beautiful language of God's love and self love. Filled with a compilation of stories from the Quran and the Prophet (PBUH), combined with poetry, mysticism, personal stories and much more .It's a wonderful and practical guide to a spiritual journey into the Heart of Islam. I would say it's a beautiful read for anyone who's longing to find that deeper connection with the Divine.Thank you for being that spiritual GEM and sharing your love and message in this great book.May you always continue to spread the Divine love. Ameen!
5.0 out of 5 stars Best Islamic book i have ever encountered
I reverted 6 years ago and have a Bachelor's studying religion secularly (how does it form, why does it seem to be a part of human nature, what do rituals and practices do for mankind). This is my favorite religious book i have ever read, I think even for those who are strict in their dogma and are skeptical of mysticism in religion could benefit from reading this and forgoing the mindfulness practice if it bothered them bc the content of this book is so outstandingly beautiful. To be honest after converting interacting with Muslims has been the main thing that has pushed me away from my faith at times and this book really reminded me why I found the Quran to be so compelling and why I accepted Islam in the first place by bringing me back to a focus on God and love for myself and others that he created. I'm actually reading for a second time after finishing my first read through this month.
5.0 out of 5 stars A Spiritual Treasure that Feeds the Heart and the Soul - Highly Recommended for all Faiths
This book is truly a treasure! It is permeated with a softness and expansiveness that gently finds its way into your heart. It lifts the veils of heaviness surrounding religion to reveal the love and the joy at its roots. It creates a burning desire to know God, to know His secrets, to know yourself and your creation. I especially appreciate the way Helwa creates modern metaphors to describe ancient truths. For example, she describes how the revelation of the Qur’an “has a mysterious way of decoding and recoding our spiritual mainframe from the emotional traumas and patterns of the past.” And how it acts as a GPS, a “God Positioning System” that “warns us when we are going in the wrong direction, by reminding us that our ultimate goal is not to chase after this world...” With her unique writing style, she paints the most exquisite pictures that exude a fragrance that make you want to follow, to discover, and yet leave you desiring more. It is the perfect entrance to someone looking for mystical path with which to quench their thirst.

Secrets of Divine Love is a beautifully written book that speaks directly to the heart. The author combines deep knowledge of the Qur’an and Hadith with a compassionate and accessible style, making complex spiritual ideas easy to understand.

A wonderful book for anyone seeking inspiration, comfort, and deeper understanding of Islam.
