💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 Each soul you meet is temporary like life itself.
Don't expect each of them to reciprocate your help,
To return your favors, reach out, ask about your health.
Don't fret if most of them left, not caring how you felt.
~•~
Those gifts, the amount of cash you spent on so-and-so,
And acts of kindness you showed to those who chose to go
Are not wasted. If you did them for Allah, just know
Each good deed you've done for Allah benefits your soul.
~•~
It's not a crisis if this person ditched your circle,
That one ignored your messages, these stayed ungrateful,
And you were betrayed or you're ghosted by some people.
Be glad you learned something. Recall they're replaceable.
~•~
From the brief connections that Allah caused to take place,
We learn to depend only on Allah, not His slaves.
We see how deceit is ugly, so we don't betray,
And people's nature/true colors get revealed someday.
~•~
Celebrate the truth that even if everyone leaves,
As long as you believe in Allah, you are complete.
It's your wholeness that causes broken souls to mistreat.
Take them as means for your faith and patience to increase.

📖 Ibn Abbas RadhiAllahu 'anhuma narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "Verily, Allah has recorded good and evil deeds and He made them clear. Whoever intends to perform a good deed but does not do it, Allah will record it as a complete good deed. If he intends to do it and does so, Allah the Almighty will record it as ten good deeds, up to seven hundred times as much or even more. If he intends to do an evil deed and does not do it, Allah will record for him one complete good deed. If he does it, Allah will record for him a single evil deed."

📖 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."
