Poem: Find Comfort By Crying To Allah.


💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 The more you put your trust in Allah the Almighty,
The less you need people to hear you out, meet your needs,
And listen to your rantings for their brief sympathy.
Only Allah, not His servants, can keep you complete.
~*~
You don't require shrinks or psychiatrists to list down
Your problems and analyze procedures to solve them,
When we always have Allah, the Most Kind, All-Knowing,
Who understands why we cry and sees our condition.
~*~
While it's fine to confide in friends who are trustworthy,
The strongest of believers weep to Allah Only.
Why complain about grief to increase others' worries,
When at all times there's Allah to grant help and relief?
~*~
Even if reliable companions were around
And their concerns could generate smiles from saddened frowns,
I'd rather have my troubles kept as secrets from crowds
Lest my complaints become news to be gossiped about.
~*~
So praise be to Allah Who knows my sorrow truly.
Allah is the Only One Whom we can trust fully.
While most people can't at all times perceive how we feel,
Allah always understands what we say and conceal.

📖 Abu Huraira RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "There are seven whom Allah will shade on a day when there is no shade but His. They are: a just ruler, a youth who grew up in the worship of Allah, one whose heart is attached to the Masjid, two believers who love each other, meet each other, and depart from each other for the sake of Allah, a man who is tempted by a beautiful woman of high status but he rejects her, saying , ‘I fear Allah,’ one who spends in charity and conceals it so much so that his right hand does not know what his left hand has given, and one who remembered Allah in private and he wept."
