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.

Note: The Virtues Of Seeking Islamic Knowledge

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 While Allah the Almighty grants worldly joys to both people whom He loves and those whom He does not love, He gives understanding of Islam exclusively to those who are beloved to Him. Access to Islamic lectures online, ability to frequently attend religious classes, and enjoying learning about Islam are among the signs that you are loved by Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala.
Being skilled in speaking foreign languages like Korean, being a math genius, having memorized the biographies of renowned scientists or celebrities, receiving the title "professor", or graduating from a top-notch university with a doctorate degree will not benefit at all when one's body is buried in the grave after leaving this temporary world.
Only the ignorant who are unaware of dunya's reality would regard Muslims who enthusiastically study about Islam as "outdated" and "uneducated". If some parents insist on sending their kids to supposedly the best educational institutions, so they can with Allah's Will become proficient employees or medical staff in the future, they should at least encourage them to never stop seeking Islamic knowledge from reliable sources. Authentic knowledge of Islam, accompanied by sincerity, is an essential asset which can guarantee success and contentment in both worlds.

The virtue of the scholar over the worshiper is like the superiority of the moon over the stars. The scholars are the inheritors of the Prophets. They do not leave behind gold or silver coins, but rather they leave behind knowledge. Whoever has taken hold of it has been given an abundant share."
