💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 To critics who act like sycophants to huge ego,
Who judge you like they know you when you're not even close,
Who diss your marriage based on guesses completely false,
And describe you like they know you when they don't at all:
Don't flatter yourself with lies that attract your downfall.

Remember this, Only Allah the Almighty knows
All about His servants, what they conceal and disclose,
What they dream at night and the kind of thoughts they think of,
What they tell themselves to encourage or clear sorrow,
And what their plans are before some of them get disowned.
~•~
You don't know someone if all you do is wave hello,
Exchange salaams, reluctant smiles or awkward convos,
If you went out together once, or all you recall
Are their names and info they shared from their online posts,
And you've never had talks with them that are deep or long.
~•~
You don't know someone until you've seen them in their homes,
Saw their true nature without them putting on a show,
Witnessed their habits that with Allah's Will helped them grow,
Observed their efforts to serve Allah, heard all their words
And understood their reasons behind each "yes" and "no".
~•~
If you don't know someone, stop pretending like you know
Them when you're still strangers and most things they haven't told.
We're Allah's slaves born with flaws and prone to making faults.
Before throwing labels at others, inspect yourself.
Is your heart pure if your morals are low and absurd?

📖 Abu Huraira RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "Beware of suspicion, for suspicion is the most false of tales. Do not seek out faults, do not spy on each other, do not contend with each other, do not envy each other, do not hate each other, and do not turn away from each other. Rather, be servants of Allah as brothers."
