Poem: Five Insecure Habits That Confident People Do Not Do

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

💌 Five things that truly confident people do not do, 

As their trust in Allah Almighty keeps them assured: 

They don't bully, to envying others they're immune, 

They don't glue themselves to worldly joys to feel secure, 

They're not petty, not confused nor of themselves unsure.

~•~

One: Confident people don't oppress like awful trolls. 

Bullying and injustice they would never approach. 

They value rich manners as though they have hearts of gold.

They'd hate to be obnoxious like a pesky cockroach 

Through disturbing people's peace or laughing at their faults.

~•~

Two: Confident Muslims are happy from the inside, 

With Allah's Love and Guidance keeping them satisfied. 

They seldom photograph food they ate to emphasize 

They can afford lavish meals and luxurious lifestyles. 

They don't flaunt their affluence for superficial likes.

~•~

Three: Thick-skinned and steadfast, trusting Allah the Most Wise, 

They swiftly and smoothly move on from those they despise. 

They don't seek people's applause nor insist to be liked.

They don't bother stalking strangers online and offline. 

To toxic vibes and drama themselves they don't invite.

~•~

Four: The confident are determined and resolute, 

With long-term and lofty goals they patiently pursue. 

Critics' insults and loved ones not cheering can't reduce 

Their will to succeed. They don't need a fan club to move.

Criticism and failures inspire them to improve.

~•~

Five: Grateful for Allah's Love, from within they're complete, 

Unafraid and unworried if friends decide to leave.

Whoso likes them they befriend or treat with courtesy, 

And they're unfazed by those who view them as enemies. 

They don't take selfies or do acts so the crowds are pleased.

~•~

You know you're confident when you're thriving already 

With strong Imaan and trust in Allah the Almighty, 

When people can't make you doubt your worth and faculties, 

And you don't retreat when they sneer or show enmity.

Toughen up for Allah Whom we serve and fear only.

~•~

📖 Abu Huraira RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah’s noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "The strong believer is more beloved to Allah than the weak believer, but there is goodness in both of them. Be eager for what benefits you, seek help from Allah, and do not be frustrated. If something befalls you, then do not say: 'If only I had done something else.’ Rather say: 'Allah has decreed what He wills.' Verily, the phrase ‘if only’ opens the way for the work of shaytan."

Poem: Only Allah Knows The Niyyah / Intentions Of His Servants

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

💌 "She brings food to meetings to prove she's so generous, 

Either that, or to flaunt she can cook better than us.", 

"She published her own books desperate to be famous.", 

"They conduct Islamic classes mainly for the cash.", 

"More reminders? Attention hog, would you look at that."

~•~

"He only gave us a ride to show off his new car.", 

"They lecture just to be some sort of religious stars.", 

"By sharing posts in Arabic they obviously are 

Flaunting their linguistic skills, that they're more superior.", 

"They desire people's approval. I doubt they're sincere."

~•~

No matter how pure your heart is or how you ensure 

That your deeds are for Allah, with niyyah not impure, 

There'll be critics and haters out there who are unsure 

Of your intention, and they act like they know for sure, 

When matters dealing with the heart are issues obscure.

~•~

People must remind themselves that Only Allah knows 

The actual state, feelings and intentions of all souls. 

Just as they can't judge books with one glimpse of their covers, 

They've no right to describe you using unfitting words, 

Specially if you've never hung out with them before.

~•~

Let those who falsely accuse you receive your past sins, 

Disturbing themselves with lies and jealous resentment. 

While you can't stop them from accusing and assuming, 

You can seek Allah's Help, trust He'll justly deal with them.

Await rewards for your patience with their suspicions.

📖 Ibn Mas’ud RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: The Messenger of Allah SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam was distributing charity when a man from the Ansaar said, “By Allah, Muhammad (SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam) did not intend to please Allah with this!” I came to the Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam and told him about it, then anger could be seen on his face. The Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "Moses (Prophet Musa 'alaihis salaam) was hurt by more than this, yet he remained patient."

In another narration, the Prophet Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "Who will be just if not Allah and His Messenger?"

📖 Usamah Ibn Zayd RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: The Messenger of Allah, SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam sent us on an expedition. In the morning we attacked Al-Huraqat of Juhaynah. I caught hold of a man and he said, “There is no god but Allah!” but I stabbed him. Then it occurred to me that I should mention that to the Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam. The Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "Did he say ‘there is no god but Allah’ and you killed him?" I said, “O Messenger of Allah, he only said it fearing the weapon.” The Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "Did you tear open his heart to know if he meant it or not?" The Prophet SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam continued to repeat this to me until I had wished I had not embraced Islam until that day.
