💌 Three tips for wives to ensure their love stays forever,
To each wife who aspires to reach Jannah together
With the man whom Allah chose as her spouse and partner,
Whether she's his first, second, third, fourth, or sole lover:
~•~
First tip: Aside from loving your man for Allah's sake,
Befriend grateful wives who don't broadcast their men's mistakes,
Study writings on loyalty, posts that motivate,
And unfollow users who debase their husbands' names.
~•~
Don't absorb the vibes of whiners who keep complaining
About their husbands without thinking of solutions.
If your advice, help and suggestions aren't welcomed,
Lessen talks with them to avoid their bad influence.
~•~
Second tip: Rewind and reflect on cherished moments.
Your husband's wrongs mustn't make his merits forgotten.
Don't let pride force you to demand swift separation
After arguments that are meant to boost your patience.
~•~
Your soulmate failed to do what you ordered? Forgive him.
He's human, like you, prone to erring and forgetting.
He keeps disappointing you? Advise until he learns.
Keep guiding, and don't quit if your love is genuine.
~•~
Third tip: Imagine all the outcomes of your actions.
Will divorce guarantee freedom and joy that's lasting?
Or will it bring remorse and awkward situations,
When you cross paths and see his fam every now and then?
~•~
Of the reasons for marrying him recall often,
Prior to deciding always seek Allah's Guidance.
Soulmates who married for Allah thrive with inner strength
To withstand trials and defeat shaytan's whisperings.
