💌 Five tips to fully detach from someone you once loved,
To ditch a broken romance and leave it in the past,
And to forget about an unattainable crush,
So there's no awkwardness when Allah plans you cross paths,
Or you can move on from the connection you both had:
~•~
One: Admit, affirm and acknowledge you did feel "love",
Whether your crush still feels the same way or they forgot,
Don't deny your attraction or it may develop.
Tell yourself, "I like them, but they're someone I can't have.
I'll leave them for Allah's sake. I prefer Allah's Love."
~•~
Two: Accept patiently Allah's Destiny/Qadr.
Understand if it was destined, you'd be together,
If Allah wanted you as soulmates for each other
That would've been the case, but it's not, so don't bother.
Your spousal love is reserved for someone much better.
~•~
Three: Appreciate the spouse whom Allah chose for you,
If you're married, and let your love always be renewed,
So you value them with loyalty and gratitude.
And if you're single, await your turn with fortitude.
Don't spoil your future with someone unlawful for you.
~•~
Four: In mourning what went by and what was there's no use.
Tears in the present can't bring back what you had to lose,
Nostalgic thoughts and wishing that former bonds stayed glued
Only please your foes and prevent you from happy moods.
Reflect on the past only if it helps you improve.
~•~
Five: Substitute your worries and dreams that slipped from you
With trust in Allah, frequent Adhkaar, Du'as, Sujood,
And acceptance that what Allah gives is best for you.
Allow heartbreaks to wash away sins you used to do
And know to Allah's tests there's no human who's immune.
~•~
May Allah the Most Kind and Merciful calm your heart,
And guide you to patiently moving on from the past.
Ameen. Take note, when you're among those whom Allah loves,
Allah may test your faith with souls that deeply attract.
Be tougher than your nafs. Always prefer Allah's Love.
~•~
📖 Ibn Abbas RadhiAllahu 'anhuma narrated: I was riding behind the Messenger of Allah SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam when he said to me, "Young man, I will teach you some words. Be mindful of Allah and He will protect you. Be mindful of Allah and you will find Him before you. If you ask, ask from Allah. If you seek help, seek help from Allah. Know that if the nations gathered together to benefit you, they will not benefit you unless Allah has decreed it for you. And if the nations gathered together to harm you, they will not harm you unless Allah has decreed it for you. The pens have been lifted and the pages have dried."
