💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 Since Allah legislated certain laws and rulings,
And the purpose of living is to worship just Him,
Let's strive to avoid what He made haraam/forbidden,
Stay away from whatever leads to vile temptations,
And if we sin, as we're human, rush to repentance.
~*~
Don't listen to the heart; it's where shaytan's whisperings
Linger or visit often to trigger strong feelings -
Of envy, self-doubt, sorrow, and intense attraction -
Including lust for the same gender from obsession.
Shield your heart with Taqwa, Dhikr and supplications.
~*~
How some souls "fall in love" is a gradual occurrence:
It starts with a gaze, then frequent paying attention,
Then staring and desiring to be noticed by them
After seeing their traits that caused your admiration.
Tension increases with increased communication.
~*~
Each time you and the subject of your adoration
Exchange text messages and glances with flirtation,
Unwelcome emotions start rising, you imagine
Doing unthinkable things with them, fantasizing
Scenarios too unsuitable for sincere Muslims.
~*~
So long as how you feel isn't put into action -
No intentional flirting nor improper touching,
You won't be accountable for shaytan's suggestions.
Resisting evil desires and imaginations
With perseverance can actually be rewarding.
~*~
For Allah's sake shun fitna. Continue defeating
Your nafs with patience, and keep your faith/Imaan strengthened -
With ongoing trust in Allah the Most Forgiving,
Regular Tawbah, awareness of death arriving
Anytime anyplace, thus prepare for its advent.
~*~
When liking some causes emotional disturbance
And not being wed to them is an extra warning,
Warn yourself of zina's seriousness and punishment.
Recall you love Allah more, this world's not permanent,
And Jannah is the prize for every patient Muslim.

📖 Abu Qatadah RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam, said, "Verily, you will never leave anything for the sake of Allah the Almighty but that Allah will replace it with something better."
