๐ It's possible for two lovers to stay connected
If loving each other for Allah is authentic,
In spite of being physically separated
At times, their love stays intact, not easily damaged.
~•~
I may not see my husband on a daily basis,
And due to work he's not always communicative,
But since my love for him is real and not pretended,
I can handle his frequent silence and busyness.
~•~
To some, my spouse may not be visibly romantic,
And to others I'm a wife who's often neglected,
But I know him as the man whom I've gladly married.
All his gifts and sweet favors I still deeply cherish.
~•~
When there are times he can't answer my recent message
And couples remind me how my other half is missed,
I train myself to persevere, true love doesn't quit.
Allah loves the patient. With Sabr I'll manage this.
~•~
Imagine a friend whom you love since you both were kids,
From an accident their body became defective,
Though they can't recognize the memories that you've kept,
You remain as the friend who still cares and never left.
~•~
Same with my soulmate. His mistakes don't keep me upset,
His occasional absences cannot discourage
Me from willingly accepting this kind of marriage,
As I've loved him for Allah since the day we married.
~•~
Real love doesn't have an expiry date, don't forget,
Specially if it's for Allah and by Him it's blessed.
With Allah's Will and while trusting Him, I'll try my best
To help my spouse He sent me till Jannah is promised.

Ali Al-Qari said, "That she prostrates to her husband is due to the number of his rights over her and her difficulty in maintaining gratitude for them. This rhetorical point conveys the obligation of the wife to obey her husband in his rights. Indeed, prostration is not lawful to anyone other than Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala."
