💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 As long as you have Allah and you trust Him always,
Moments spent alone mustn't make you bored nor afraid.
Don't feel guilty avoiding those who seem to be fake,
Who enjoy gossip, prefer dunya and they're two-faced.
~*~
Those who act nice from the front yet backbite from behind,
Secretly despising you despite their rehearsed smiles,
And frenemies of their likes do not deserve your time.
Still maintain your noble manners and respect their rights.
~*~
It's your right to choose who gets to enter your circle
Of trusted companions with similar traits and goals.
If some can't help you serve Allah the Most Merciful,
Leave them for Allah's sake without feeling regretful.
~*~
You need genuine friends who can benefit your soul,
Who are helpful, understanding and reliable,
Who can't envy your achievements and your special role,
Whose desire for Jannah exceeds their love for this world.
~*~
If sincere comrades in your place are too hard to find,
Surrounded by haters who dislike your Imaan's light,
Jealously threatened by your faith and positive vibes,
Then being alone with Allah is perfectly fine.
~*~
For Allah's Qadr to send good friends patiently wait.
They'll come around on earth or in Paradise someday.
Your worth isn't based on popularity nor fame.
Good deeds done sincerely are what can keep your soul saved.
~*~
So regardless of how many get along with you,
Focus on doing good deeds Allah wants you to do.
Thank Allah for the few who recognize your value.
Strive together with courage, patience and gratitude.
