Poem: Nine Mistakes In Ramadan We Should Avoid Doing

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful 
💌 Nine common mistakes in Ramadan we mustn't make, 
To attain more rewards as we fast for Allah's sake: 
One: Being eager to fast but too lazy to pray, 
Waking up for Suhoor while one's prayers are delayed. 
Try to ensure all of Allah's Commands are obeyed.
~•~
Two: Pausing major sins, like zina and backbiting, 
And when it's Eid, one returns to their evil-doings. 
Do your best to reform for a valid repentance. 
Three: Not caring about one's niyyah before fasting. 
Actions are nothing if they lack sincere intention.
~•~
Four: Reading the Noble Qur'an without reflection, 
Aiming to read many times without understanding. 
Understand Allah's Words so your faith can be strengthened. 
Five: Not praying Taraweeh at all, as it's "tiring". 
Learn Islam. Good deeds are easy when you've got wisdom. 
~•~
Six: Asking Allah for your needs while you've abandoned 
Purposely your relatives and blocked lots of Muslims. 
Say Du'a with a pure heart. Forgive. Ditch resentment. 
Seven: Losing rewards through complaints and impatience. 
Humbly fast for Allah without loudly complaining.
~•~
Eight: Spending most hours sleeping so hunger's forgotten. 
Recall the battle of Badr, how the Muslims won, 
And strive to do more good deeds for Allah with patience. 
Nine: Being very wasteful when eating and drinking. 
To serving Allah, not your greed, give more importance.
~•~
Ramadan, a noble month that comes in a year once, 
Shouldn't be taken for granted, dear fellow Muslim. 
From those who returned to Allah before this season 
Take lessons to hasten your Tawbah, self-improvement, 
And wise preparation, to meet Allah whilst smiling.
~•~
Cleanse your soul and pardon all Muslims for Allah's sake, 
Even if with some you don't always communicate.
Fix your niyyah at night, intend to fast the next day, 
So you're with Muslims fasting in case you wake up late. 
Seek Allah's Forgiveness if ever mistakes are made.
~•~
📖 Abdullah Ibn Amr RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "Fasting and the Qur'an will intercede for the servant on the Day of Resurrection. Fasting will say: 'O Rabb (Allah the Almighty), I prevented him from food and drink during the day, so let me intercede for him.' The Qur'an will say: 'O Rabb (Allah the Almighty), I prevented him from sleeping during the night, so let me intercede for him.' Thus, they will both intercede for him."

Poem: Love Your Loved Ones And Friends For Allah's Sake In Moderation

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful 
💌 Some souls, when they love you for Allah, they don't go deep. 
They don't oblige themselves to daily reach out and speak 
With you though your name is mentioned by them frequently 
In loving Du'as while you're busy, up or asleep. 
Although they seem distant, they care about you deeply.
~•~
Giving you space, moments to take breaks, freedom to breathe, 
And calmly waiting for you are signs their love is real. 
They don't want extreme attachment to spoil what they feel, 
As high expectations can damage what has been sealed. 
Tighten a knot nonstop, and it may break gradually.
~•~
Imagine you and your beloved as a sticky 
Note on paper that can be released more easily 
If what glues you to each other is temporary, 
Compared to lasting adhesives that can lead to tears, 
Torn pieces that resemble a heart that's incomplete.
~•~
Don't glue yourself too much to people whom you hold dear, 
As getting overly attached can hurt immensely. 
Learn not to be like those who threaten insecurely
Their friends with vicious threats if they ditch their company, 
Or who try to take their lives when a friend dies or leaves.
~•~
When certain friends distance themselves occasionally, 
Their frequent silence is to guarantee your safety - 
Protection from gossip, zina and impiety, 
And they wish that when Allah decrees their souls to leave, 
You remain strong, as you're attached to Allah Only.
~•~
📖 Umar Ibn Al-Khattab RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "If you were to rely upon Allah with reliance due to Him, He (Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala) would provide for you just as He provides for the birds. They go out in the morning with empty stomachs and return full (or satisfied)."

📖 Abu Huraira RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "Love whom you love moderately, perhaps he will become hateful to you someday. Hate whom you hate moderately, perhaps he will become your beloved friend someday."
