💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 Eleven signs you have a strong and confident personality:
1] Since you trust Allah the Almighty and attain inner strength by striving to obey Him, you're not easily swayed nor negatively affected by His servants' enmity, hostility and criticism.
2] You are wisely selective or careful with your choice of close friends and the kind of content you expose yourself to online and offline. You don't stalk the social media accounts of people you dislike nor do you watch vlogs that could trigger you to question the quality of your lifestyle.
3] You don't go through self-doubt or self-pity when morally deficient individuals treat you disrespectfully. If someone ignored your salaams and messages, you never wonder if you did something wrong which caused them to despise you. You easily let go of unreliable attachments, move on confidently, and patiently accept that Allah the Most Wise already decreed which of His creation are capable of connecting with your soul's energy.
4] You intensely abhor gossip and avoid ethically incompetent people who cowardly discuss others' flaws. Gossiping and ridiculing a person while they aren't around to defend themselves befit those who are unconfident.
5] You persistently stick to what you understand is right, rational and sensible, regardless of the majority's opinions or stubborn efforts to persuade you to do what's wrong.
6] You're independent, while depending only on Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala, and you are never desperate for people's approval, support and words of encouragement.
7] Insults, if there is a speck of truth in them, are chances for you to grow and improve. Offensive remarks, backhanded compliments and insulting jokes on the other hand which are obvious lies simply boost your ability to have patience for Allah's sake and contentment that you are unlike those who are insecure.
8] You know when to be quiet and when to speak truthfully, helpfully and kindly. In a group setting, you seldom talk a lot, unless talking benefits you as well as those who are listening.
9] You are incapable of envying the gifts, joys and achievements of Allah's servants. Someone's positive qualities or abilities can't make you feel inferior. You are supportive of your loved ones and friends, so long as their endeavors do not conflict with Allah's Orders.
10] As a Muslim who is self-confident, you readily defend those who are unjustly mistreated, bullied or being made fun of. You're not one to be a silent bystander when you notice somebody receiving disrespect or in an embarrassing situation. You courageously speak up especially if injustice is carried out without reasoning.
11] You never behave pridefully as though you're better and superior to everyone you meet nor do you consider yourself as "not good enough" if you can't fit in with a certain clique. You believe that your self-respect isn't based on people's dealings with you nor how you compare yourself to them, but how Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala sees you is what's actually important.
📖 Abu Huraira RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah’s noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, “The strong believer is more beloved to Allah than the weak believer, but there is goodness in both of them. Be eager for what benefits you, seek help from Allah, and do not be frustrated. If something befalls you, then do not say: 'If only I had done something else.’ Rather say: "Allah has decreed what He wills.” Verily, the phrase ‘if only’ opens the way for the work of shaytan.“
