💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 Some souls, when they love you for Allah, they don't go deep.
They don't oblige themselves to daily reach out and speak
With you though your name is mentioned by them frequently
In loving Du'as while you're busy, up or asleep.
Although they seem distant, they care about you deeply.
~•~
Giving you space, moments to take breaks, freedom to breathe,
And calmly waiting for you are signs their love is real.
They don't want extreme attachment to spoil what they feel,
As high expectations can damage what has been sealed.
Tighten a knot nonstop, and it may break gradually.
~•~
Imagine you and your beloved as a sticky
Note on paper that can be released more easily
If what glues you to each other is temporary,
Compared to lasting adhesives that can lead to tears,
Torn pieces that resemble a heart that's incomplete.
~•~
Don't glue yourself too much to people whom you hold dear,
As getting overly attached can hurt immensely.
Learn not to be like those who threaten insecurely
Their friends with vicious threats if they ditch their company,
Or who try to take their lives when a friend dies or leaves.
~•~
When certain friends distance themselves occasionally,
Their frequent silence is to guarantee your safety -
Protection from gossip, zina and impiety,
And they wish that when Allah decrees their souls to leave,
You remain strong, as you're attached to Allah Only.

📖 Umar Ibn Al-Khattab RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "If you were to rely upon Allah with reliance due to Him, He (Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala) would provide for you just as He provides for the birds. They go out in the morning with empty stomachs and return full (or satisfied)."
