Poem: Advice To Deal With "Loneliness" Or Not Fitting In

๐Ÿ’ In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
๐Ÿ’Œ Few righteous friends with whom you can learn Islam often 
Is much more rewarding than self-imposed seclusion. 
But what happens if the environment where you're in 
Lacks people who enjoy learning and share your mission? 
When truthful souls are scarce, solitude is a blessing.
~•~
Avoiding those prone to lying, acting, backbiting, 
Constantly comparing their state to your condition, 
Criticizing your flaws, envying your achievements, 
And calculating how many freebies you've given, 
Signifies freedom from drama and bad influence.
~•~
No good can be attained by chatting with fake persons, 
Who draw forced smiles on their faces, invent false statements, 
And frequently fool around to see your reaction. 
'Tis better to gaze at clouds or count eggs of chickens 
Than interact with actors guilty of pretending.
~•~
Fifty-five minutes of chit-chat with an acquaintance 
Can be more wisely spent on Qur'an recitation, 
Reading useful books, researching for self-improvement, 
And other works that don't involve lies and gossiping. 
No good can be gained from one who can't teach anything.
~•~
Stay connected to Allah, and you won't feel lonesome. 
You can't always expect joy from Allah's creation 
Since all humans are flawed, each soul with their own problems, 
And feelings can get in the way of right decisions. 
Once content with Allah's Love, you'll be self-sufficient.
~•~
