Poem: A Warning Against Purposely Cutting Off Family Ties

๐Ÿ’ In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
๐Ÿ’Œ Note to those who claim to be Muslims yet pridefully 
Left their parents who nurtured them since they were babies, 
Blocked cousins on Facebook due to animosity, 
Treat some of their relatives with foul hostility, 
Or who disown some from their clan because of money: 
~•~
Do you think Allah the Almighty will instantly 
Answer your Du'a when you cause your mother to weep, 
When you've abandoned some cousins due to jealousy, 
When your ego and pride are louder than lightning streaks 
As you view some relatives like they're sworn enemies?
~•~
You fast in Ramadan, obey Allah partially, 
And you expect Allah to help you immediately 
When you refuse to reconcile with your family, 
Let alone respond to them when they cheerfully greet, 
Or reach out and send some salaams once a year at least?
~•~
Fear Allah the Most Wise and don't take His Laws lightly. 
Maintaining family ties is a Muslim's duty. 
Respecting one's parents is a must similarly, 
Even if they're not Muslims yet, you treat them kindly, 
To please Allah through behaving with humility. 
~•~
If you can't always visit loved ones since you're busy, 
At least contact them or message occasionally, 
Or ask another relative to forward kindly 
Your salaams to relatives in faraway cities. 
Don't block them online, lest you're barred from Allah's Mercy.
~•~
