Poem: People Come And Go, Don't Get Attached.


💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 Allah the Most Wise already chose special people
Who are meant to befriend us and enter our circle,
Regardless of where they live, and despite obstacles,
Their life goals align with ours, and they remain loyal.
~*~
Other souls, on the other hand, in spite of knowing
Their names for many years can't form mutual affection.
After all unpleasant meetings, misunderstandings,
And silent moments come detachment and estrangement.
~*~
What may cause potential friends to drift apart include:
Envy from one side or both, being selfish or rude,
Not properly communicating, ingratitude,
Suspicion, refusing to forgive or settle feuds.
~*~
When the friend you used to chat with nearly every week
Becomes a complete stranger whom you dislike to meet,
And when ex-friends pass by not to chill but briefly greet,
Smile; you still have Allah the One Whom you truly need.
~*~
People's rejection and distance should simply inspire
You to run to Allah more as your faith grows stronger,
Recalling that even if the entire world gathered
To abandon you, Allah won't leave; He's always there.
~*~
So do not bother crying over broken friendships.
If Allah the Most Wise saw goodness in those who left,
He would've let them stay, and you wouldn't get upset.
Knowing Allah knows what's best for us keeps us at rest.
~*~
Accept Allah's Qadr. Know that dunya is fleeting,
People come and go. This world's joys aren't permanent.
Don't be attached to fellow servants, but keep striving
And serving Allah until your soul returns to Him.
~*~

📖 ‘Uqbah Ibn Amr RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: I said, “O Messenger of Allah, tell me about virtuous deeds.” The Prophet Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said,“O ‘Uqbah, reconcile with whoever cuts you off, give to whoever deprives you, and turn away from whoever wrongs you.”
In another narration, the Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, “And forgive whoever wrongs you.”
