Poem: Opposing What shaytan Wants Is Why I Choose To Stay Married

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful 

💌 "What is it about him that makes you not want to leave? 

What do you see in him that moves you to persevere, 

To believe that he's from Allah's gifts undoubtedly, 

And what has he done to inspire you to stubbornly 

Love him for Allah's sake as your faith levels increase?"

~•~ 

Though my spouse and I, for now, are not in the same league 

And some accuse us of incompatibility, 

I perceive him as Allah's gift to boost piety. 

Instead of seeing problems as invites to worry, 

I take them as chances to enhance fierce loyalty.

~•~ 

Firmly I believe Allah chose him for me wisely 

So we learn from each other and simultaneously 

We thrive as Muslims in this love which Allah decreed. 

I've no plans to flee nor is divorce something I seek. 

Breaking up could imply one's feelings were never real.

~•~

He may not be that handsome, romantic or wealthy, 

But nonetheless he was chosen by Allah for me. 

Through this bond I've learned to advocate polygyny, 

Apply empathy with people who have special needs, 

And accept Allah's Qadr/Destiny patiently. 

~•~ 

What is it about him that makes me not want to leave? 

The fact that he's a test from Allah the Almighty. 

By refusing to give up loving him faithfully, 

I aspire to ensure that shaytan doesn't succeed 

In disrupting marriages due to his jealousy. 

~•~

📖 Abu Huraira RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "A woman is married for four things: her wealth, her family status, her beauty, and her religion. So you should marry the religious woman (otherwise) you will be a loser."
