💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 Genuine love for Allah's sake is unlike lusting -
As true love is learned after lawfully marrying,
While lust goes after looks which closed minds find appealing,
Tempting glances, temporal flings, and shameful tension.

No blessings can be found in forbidden relations,
Whether male and female, or amongst men or women,
Depression, fear and guilt are the outcomes of sinning,
Apart from the pleasures that are seldom long-lasting.
~•~
Instead of earning Allah's Wrath through haraam flirting,
Wait for lawful marriage life and do what pleases Him.
Lower your gaze, let your voice and actions be decent.
The one you can flirt with is your wedded wife/husband.
~•~
Love isn't just kissing and touching your lover's skin -
But loving your soulmate for who they are from within,
Accepting Allah's choice in choosing your companion
To journey with you to Jannah, through every moment.
~•~
Together you and your other half can solve problems,
Whether near or distant, you're glued by shared emotions,
Connected through mutual missing and understanding,
Strengthening affection with constant supplications.
~•~
When it comes to real love, heartbreaks can rarely happen,
As love goes on in Jannah if love comes with patience.
Lust yearns for temporary sexual satisfaction,
Whereas true love lasts long despite some imperfections.
~•~
There's Barakah in marriage, an act of obedience,
When both spouses get married with the right intentions -
To marry for Allah, and to raise righteous children,
To pass Allah's tests, striving to be a good Muslim.
