💌 Five likely reasons why we gravitate to some souls,
Why we relate to some, while with others we're not close,
Why we can tolerate them although their flaws are shown,
And though we don't exchange daily messages and calls,
We love them for Allah, and with them we get along:
~•~
One: We feel safe around them, as they don't judge at all.
When we speak, they listen, without making their eyes roll.
Whether we've gained some weight or we don't have makeup on,
Or we're sweaty from stress, or they see our messy home,
They sympathize and don't rush to criticize or scold.
~•~
Two: They've been so helpful and kind many times before,
Gave advice and showed support while others closed their doors,
And they return our kindness when we do them favors.
Three: They remind us of ourselves, we share the same goals,
And convos aren't awkward, as they help in self-growth.
~•~
Four: Interacting with them inspires our faith to grow,
When we read their tips, reminders and Islamic posts,
And receive warnings whenever we do something wrong.
Five: Our connection was planned by Allah long ago.
Those who were meant to like us can't be swiftly abhorred.
~•~
When Allah the Most Wise connects us with special souls,
There's wisdom in our meeting, and our bond must stay strong -
To motivate each other to obey Allah's Laws,
And work together in attaining Jannah's entrance.
Don't let shaytan break this friendship through pride and ego.
~•~
