💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 Seek Allah's Forgiveness no matter how many times
You have sinned or couldn't pray certain prayers on time.
Whether you've flirted with some souls online or offline,
Or you were influenced by friends to lie or backbite,
Or said hurtful words, it's not too late to set things right.
~•~
You can always do Tawbah so long as you're alive.
Keep in mind you're human, prone to err once in a while,
With frequent tendencies to try out evil desires,
And the nature to forget or ignore some souls' rights.
Do Tawbah. Don't be defeated by self-doubt or pride.
~•~
Prayed the morning prayer late? Overslept? Were too tired?
Made insulting remarks about someone from behind?
Watched videos you're not supposed to view? Injured a child?
Argued with your parents? Let one or both of them cry?
Did something haraam when your faith level wasn't high?
~•~
Spread false rumors about a person whom you despised?
Stole money from some people when they were out of sight?
Disrespected elders and didn't apologize?
Suspected other Muslims while envy you'd deny?
Whatever wrongs you've done, you have chance to set things right.
~•~
Say "AstaghfurAllah" sincerely each day and night.
Acknowledge the fact that Allah can forgive and guide.
Without Allah's Light and Guidance, we wouldn't survive.
Lacking Allah's Love signifies a meaningless life.
Thus repent to Allah to join those whom Allah likes.
