💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 Around the world are souls whom I love for Allah's sake,
I gravitate to them as plants lean to the sun's rays.
Their love for Allah and strong faith are what captivate,
So I'm inspired to pray for them nearly night and day.
~•~
Though to some I haven't told they're loved for Allah's sake,
Guessing they're too busy, or they reside far away,
Or they'll find me strange, or the feelings are not the same,
My love is shown in Du'as when I pronounce their names.
~•~
Other ways in which love for Allah's sake is portrayed
Include defending them when some gossip and defame,
Checking on them once in a while, hoping they're okay,
Concealing their secrets, and correcting their mistakes.
~•~
I love them lots for Allah for how they motivate
Me to learn Islam, be more cautious of what I say,
To stay patient, fast Sunnah fasts every other day,
And to avoid bid'ah so I do not go astray.
~•~
Although my affection may not be clearly displayed,
Only Allah knows that I do love them for His sake.
This love lacks extreme attachment but gives needed space,
Freedom to strive together towards Allah's Straight Way.
