💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 Some possible reasons why some people seem grumpy,
Why a friend, colleague or stranger may offensively
Disrespect you or answer your questions angrily,
So you won't assume Allah doesn't love you when He
Sometimes strengthens you through tough times and difficulties:
~•~
That taxi driver who seemed sad or irritable
Likely received bad news he'll no longer be able
To work with his company, or his wife ungrateful
Threatened him with divorce for his financial struggles.
Someone's moodiness shouldn't make your manners awful.
~•~
Those salespeople who looked dismal or unwelcoming
May be dealing with problems and each one's different,
Decreased income, or increased demands from their children,
Lack of support from their loved ones, a heart that's broken,
Illness or announcement that someone close is dying.
~•~
Clients, customers or officers prone to scowling
And others who don't implement basic good treatment
May be tests from Allah the Most Wise to train patience.
Will you treat them with equal sass, pride and arrogance?
Or empathize and think maybe they're hurt from within?
~•~
People who are miserable from inside naturally
Find it hard to be polite and apply courtesy.
When someone is suffering, disturbed, or unhappy,
Realize you're not the problem but them actually.
Don't let your morals drop due to their despondency.
