Poem: Some Ways To Detect Jealous Haters

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 Ways to identify self-hating, jealous haters,
Who are too insecure they deny Allah's Qadr,
Unwilling to thank Allah for His chosen favors,
So they devalue themselves by envying others:
~*~
Though not connected to you on Facebook, they're lurkers,
Addicted to hatefully stalking your reminders,
Disregarding your good traits, fearful you seem better,
Forgetting their own gifts and kindness they can offer.
~*~
Most of their posts are passive-aggressive, meant to cure
And appease their envious selves when not self-assured.
Why can't they directly confront the ones they abhor?
Are they that dismal they use gossip to feel secure?
~*~
Those guilty of envy can be spotted through their words,
When they discuss your flaws, accuse you and bash your works,
Magnify your mistakes and have your questions ignored,
And when they're speechless as your joys make them feel much worse.
~*~
Chatty and cheery only when they see you suffer,
These jealous fault-finders don't deserve your side tender,
Your Du'as, close companionship and cheerful laughter.
Do yourself a favor and avoid those sad stalkers.
~*~
Let them give you their rewards whenever they blabber
Online and offline about you while feeling bitter.
Be grateful we're nothing like them in lacking manners.
Dismiss their bad vibes. Develop your good character.
~*~
Envious foes who hate seeing you climb the ladder
Are among Allah's tests that can be passed through Sabr.
Say "HasbunAllah wa Ne'm Al-Wakeel". Don't falter.
It's not your fault if your kind heart makes dark souls triggered.
