Poem: A Muslim Woman's Worth Is In Serving Allah, Not Her Beauty Nor Society

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 Your worth as a Muslimah isn't measured by looks, 
By how slim, graceful and stylish you make yourself look, 
By the kinds of food you eat or how well you can cook, 
By how many vlogs and selfies can get your fans hooked, 
And by the places or countries you have traveled to.
~•~
A woman's glow outshining yours doesn't always mean 
You're not as good. In terms of appearance don't compete. 
Socialites who know how to keep their make-up on fleek, 
Whose wardrobes often get filled with clothes that are trendy, 
Shouldn't make you feel less, inferior, or incomplete.
~•~
As Allah's servants, we serve Him, not society. 
As Muslims we don't aspire to be celebrities. 
We're not puppets nor slaves of the fashion industry, 
Not minions of influencers who loathe modesty, 
Not statues for decoration nor commodities.
~•~
A confident Muslim woman can browse through YouTube, 
Pass by fashionistas without feeling insecure, 
Notice vloggers who flaunt their wealth with proud attitude 
While she feels nothing yet thanks Allah with gratitude. 
Being rich or gorgeous doesn't affect one's value.
~•~
Her worth is in worshipping Allah throughout her life, 
In reading Qur'an, saying Du'a, at peace inside, 
Studying and sharing Islam online and offline, 
With a tranquil heart free from envying others' lives, 
As she calmly smiles awaiting Jannah Paradise.
~•~
📖 Abu Huraira RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "If a woman prays her five prayers, fasts her month of Ramadan, guards her chastity, and obeys her husband, she will enter Paradise from any gate she wishes."

📖 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."
