Poem: What Often Leads To Conflict Or Incompatibility

πŸ’ In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
πŸ’Œ One of the reasons behind somebody's enmity 
And spite towards you despite not knowing you really, 
Is the fact you're both different, your goals don't smoothly 
Align with each other, and most of your qualities 
Clash which makes it easy for them to loathe and mistreat.
~•~
Perhaps they like to fit in with the majority, 
They dread to look weird, and seek to please society, 
While you strive to deserve the Love of Allah Only, 
You don't fear standing out, you prefer to be unique, 
And stick to your beliefs even if most disagree.
~•~ 
Maybe your inner beauty informs them they're ugly 
Inwardly if they carry unjust grudge or envy, 
While your trust in Allah and strong personality 
May remind them of their myriad insecurities. 
Their antipathy can't make their character pretty.
~•~ 
Probably your marriage, welcoming polygyny, 
And patience trigger guilt or shame they didn't succeed 
In some tasks previously, while your choice to patiently 
Persist in loving your husband for Allah bravely 
Offends them greatly, since they're weak emotionally.
~•~
Just as wolves and bears won't benefit from worms and bees, 
And a lion's presence could disturb the peace of sheep, 
We can't expect to get along with each soul we meet, 
Specially if our haters' hate stems from jealousy 
And countless differences lead to disharmony.
~•~
