Note: On Fearing Only Allah The Almighty While Having An Intimidating Personality

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
💌 Three signs that you're close to Allah the Almighty and you have a good soul despite being viewed by some people as "intimidating": 
1] You continue doing deeds which you believe can please Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala, even if a number of individuals seem weirded out by your stubbornness, perseverance, and resilience. People's mockery, disapproval, and criticism don't bother you at all, which is why those with low self-confidence find you very "intimidating" or describe you as "unapproachable". 
2] Generally it's easier for you to interact with most animals, cats, birds, young children, nephews, nieces, and infants, yet when it comes to certain adults who are around your age or older, you may struggle to connect if they are jealously threatened by you or being too different from them triggers disharmony. 
3] With Allah's Love and Support, you're capable of waking up regularly to pray Tahajjud / Qiyaam Al-Layl and you're granted access to authentic Islamic knowledge, regardless of how many fans and stalkers you have. 
While Allah the Most Wise can grant wealth to anybody whom He chooses, He Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala generously bestows Islam, wisdom, and guidance only upon the special few whom He loves. 
The unwavering faith/Imaan, Taqwa, and strong personality of 'Umar ibn Al-Khattaab RadhiAllahu 'anhu are what caused shaytan to be afraid of him. Before you wonder if Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala likes you or not because some souls are terrified of approaching you, understand that not all rejected items or individuals are avoided due to their insignificant value, but whoever dismissed them probably rejected them as they couldn't afford them, the darkness they may be carrying can't handle bright vibes, or their souls are too glued to dunya's fleeting joys that they don't want to be near anyone who reminds them to focus on better alternatives in Jannah Paradise.

📖 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 were to gather 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."

📖 Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: 'Umar bin Al-Khattab RadhiAllahu 'anhu asked the permission of Allah's Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam to see him while some Quraishi women were sitting with him, talking to him and asking him for more expenses, raising their voices above the voice of Allah's Messenger SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam. When 'Umar RadhiAllahu 'anhu asked for the permission to enter, the women quickly put on their veils. Allah's Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam allowed him to enter and 'Umar RadhiAllahu 'anhu came in while Allah's Messenger SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam was smiling, 'Umar RadhiAllahu 'anhu said, "O Allah's Messenger! May Allah always keep you smiling." The Prophet Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "These women who have been here, roused my wonder, for as soon as they heard your voice, they quickly put on their veils." 'Umar RadhiAllahu 'anhu said, "O Allah's Messenger (SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam)! You have more right to be feared by them than I." Then 'Umar RadhiAllahu 'anhu addressed the women saying, "O enemies of yourselves! You fear me more than you do Allah's Messenger (SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam)?" They said, "Yes, for you are harsher and sterner than Allah's Messenger (SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam)." Then Allah's Messenger (SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam) said, "O Ibn Al-Khattab! By Him (Allah the Almighty) in Whose Hands my life is! Never does shaytan find you going on a way, but he takes another way other than yours."
