Poem: Advice To Those Addicted To TikTok And Trending Videos

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful

💌 TikTok... As time nowadays ticks away so quickly, 

Many youngsters misuse their faculties and beauty, 

Uploading videos of themselves behaving oddly, 

Feeling as though the world revolves around them only.

~•~

Most of the video clips they upload indirectly 

Train them to love and worship themselves addictively, 

To inflate pride when they feel impeccably pretty, 

And with increased selfies live their lives more selfishly.

~•~

It's fine if they share reminders occasionally, 

Inspirational words and advice generously, 

To uplift and support each other in piety, 

But no, lots of TikTokers promote their looks mainly.

~•~

Most, if not all, TikTok addicts are quite unhappy, 

Filled with self-hatred, self-doubt, susceptible largely 

To competitions that commend intense jealousy, 

Inducing trivial goals and decreasing self-esteem.

~•~

If they were at peace and happy from inside really, 

They'd give some of their happiness with others kindly, 

Reminding Muslims to learn Islam responsibly 

And to serve Allah instead of lost societies.

~•~

If they had confidence and inner strength actually, 

They'd use life lessons to help Muslim communities, 

Defend the weak, inspire those struggling inwardly, 

And invite others to Allah with uplifting speech.

~•~

TikTok... As time nowadays ticks away so quickly, 

If you're a TikTok addict, can you bravely delete 

All your video clips with music so Allah is Pleased 

That you renounced what your nafs wants for Allah Only.

~•~

📖 Abu Udhaynah RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "The best of your women are loving, fertile, suitable, and comforting, if they fear Allah. The worst of your women unveil their beauty, take pride in their appearance, and they are hypocrites. None of them will enter Paradise except as rarely as you see a red-beaked crow."
